Don't we remember the times when things on the mainframe itself went south? Has every site's MF env. been 100% available through all these decades? Is it wrong to fail sometimes? Is this the attitude with which you'd like to retire, holding onto precious remarks and burning the path behind you as you leave? What does that say about one's mentality and outlook in life? - KB ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ Original Message ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ On Wednesday, December 8th, 2021 at 3:54 AM, Ronald Wells <[email protected]> wrote: > Pretty pic/web pages make the $$ did you not get the memo > > -----Original Message----- > > From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [email protected] On Behalf > Of John McKown > > Sent: Tuesday, December 7, 2021 2:57 PM > > To: [email protected] > > Subject: Re: AWS is down. > > ** EXTERNAL EMAIL - USE CAUTION ** > > Oh, but they advertise that they can replace mainframe.
