That is when I deploy my patented phone taser to render the bad attitude immobile. I highly suggest getting one. :)

Robot [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, November 14, 2006 11:18 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: grrrr.... I just got off the phone with a IT company who manages the web server for one of our clients. This client is pretty small, non-profit, and we're just doing a little ASP project with them. In the course of our conversation, he asked what other languages we use. I tell him CF, ASP.NET, ASP, and PHP. His reply to me was "You still use ColdFusion? What a piece of crap!". Of course, I bristle any time I hear stuff like this, and I whoa'ed him up a little. As we got deeper into the conversation, I found out that he was basing his whole experience on a legacy CF5 server install that he did a few weeks ago for a client of his. I tried and tried to explain that he's comparing apples to oranges when talking about modern CFMX vs. CF5, but he just wouldn't hear it. I just wanted to strangle the guy. Why do IT people have such know-it-all attitudes when they clearly don't know what they are talking about? Seems to only happen in our industry...can't let the other guy out-geek you, I guess. Bah - rant over. Just needed to get it out of my system.
