Well, there's a world of difference between "venting frustration"
because filePro doesn't have an ODBC server (no one ever said that
fileProODBC is anything other than an ODBC client), and making wild
accusations about "lazy programmers" and some sort of marketing
conspiracy surrounding a supposed lack of "read/write capability"
in the ODBC functionality, given the patently false attributions
on all three counts.  (Not to mention the continued "my definition
of 'read/write' is all that matters, even if I am using the wrong
terminology" stance.)

I think most people on this list have "vented" about something or
other on this list at some point, whether it's a lack of some
feature (real or perceived), or the lack of clue in someone else's
postings (again, real or perceived).
