Yes, I am dismissing the tool, but that has a lot to do with the fact
I work at a place that uses its own methodology(sp?), so knowing FB
would help me none here and my time presently is better spent
improving my knowledge on other things.

The CFC book had quite a few mistakes in it, you could copy the code
letter for letter out of the book and it would not work.  There is
some helpful information in it however IMHO it lacked a very good
"proof reading" and is not worth the retail price.  Read through the
reviews on Amazon for a better description:

When reading through something it should not be a challenge to figure
out what mistakes were made in the book, though I guess that helps you
learn something even better. Just my opinion, we all have them and
many of them disagree with each other.
