not fired up, he is just my antithesis. i respect his development skills, i really do, its just that i cant stand sometimes the answers he just throws out....it kills me....and worse off i have to tell myself not to respond to most of them, cause i have better things to do ;)
but, to put it blatantly honest, its all about perspective... in my mind, if im not building the biggest baddest web apps in the world, then im building nothing...and who is the judge of that? me. and really, only me. thanks. now, amazon, ill give that to ya, nice shopping cart system, but the truth is, i could have done those, given the time, the resources and the money, i could have easily programmed, everything in any of those, i just wasnt given the chance. so, to wit...im here chillin and grillin on delmarva, sittin on the chesapeake bay building my own BAD A** web apps, sitting back, laughing, making nice cake! with, can you guess ladies and gents....CF peace. tw -----Original Message----- From: Fitch, Tyler [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, August 26, 2002 8:03 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: CF vs. ASP Tony, A little fired up?

I am simply pointing out that it is not because one particular feature takes less lines to code in CF than another language.
