Henry,
I am with all of our fellow DBA's requesting reconsideration of Steve Adams' 
removal from list.
Being a list member for couple of years , I found Steve Adam's replies
as one of the finest and most authentic on oracle subject. It looks that the 
matter is handled on personal account rather than professionally. I never 
saw Steve's reply as insulting or personal to anybody rather it looks his 
replies and advices like fatherly and helping a lot of DBA community 
experienced or newbi equally.

Besides, I was thinking that Jared Still is list owner so far....

Have a nice long weekend to all.

Regards
Rafiq

Dear Henry,

        Please reconsider this issue !!!!!!!!!!!!!
I am sure there are many-many more who want to request not
to remove Steve and would support my mail, but are afraid
that other's mail-box would fill up by these request only..
        To be frank & honest, he is the only list member who
has a folder in my outlook( I am not offending any-body
else)........
        Seriously ... please dont' do this........

Best Regards,
Rajesh

i hope this thread is still alive.... and my reply makes it to the
list...

by removing Steve from the list , we all will miss the insight into
oracle
internals,
which he provided , thru his answers and the links (plugs ? ) to his
website..

many threads would end when Steve provides his explanation/answer, this
show

the respect posters have for his knowledge or Oracle.

please reconsider

Regards
Rahul
