Tom, not the busiest DBA are you? What, pray tell, do you expect
to get out of this? Wait, no, don't answer because I really don't
care.

Thanks for keeping this this "about oracle and only about oracle" Mladen.
Thanks for contributing such gems as:
Gogala, Mladen, 8/17:
"90MHZ Pentium which could do 3 arithmetic operations with the numbers,
i.e. everything short of dividing two numbers correctly is still my
favorite."
Gogala, Mladen, 8/17:
"OK, I stand corrected. Windows crashes just half of the time and if
it wasn't for Windows, I'd have to explain how to actually use a
computer to a far too big lot of ignorant people. It is also a marvelous,
although somewhat overpriced alternative for the Sony's PS2.
Hopefully, the statement above will mitigate your feelings toward
us, the poor Unix geeks that use unix to provide for our everyday's
bread and Dom Perignon."
Gogala, Mladen, 8/16:
"Where in the world did you come across 100MHZ Pentium? Natural history
museum,next to the T-Rex skeleton?"
Gogala, Mladen, 8/10:
"Rachel, William is referring to an old miracle of advertising prowess
which was unleashed onto US by the Swedish company Electrolux which sells
vacuum cleaners, among other things . To make the long story short, Swedes
wanted to save the money needed for the translator, so they entrusted the
job of finding a catch phrase for selling their precious vacuum cleaners on
the US
market to a guy whose experience with the English language consisted mainly
of watching two episodes of "I love Lucy" on TV. He came up with the phrase
"Nothing sucks like Electrolux", which for some reason beyond comprehension
failed to boost sales but it certainly did make it to the marketing history
books.
I wonder if the miraculous marketeer was promoted after making the marketing
history?"
Gogala, Mladen, 8/3:
"AFAIK, the phrase "the whole 9 yards" precedes WWII and comes from WWI.
Allegedly, it was
the size of the ammo belt for the maxim machine gun. The whole 9 yards meant
"to fire it all".
As for the abbreviations, my favorite was (and still is) RTFM (Read The Fine
Manual)"
Gogala, Mladen, 8/3
"You mean that they didn't have PCs, internet, MS Windows and Night Show
with Ed Sullivan back there at Alamo? What in the world has prompted Santa
Anna
to attack, then? "
Gogala, Mladen, 8/3
"Have Bullwinkle,Davy Crockett, Red Skelton and Danny Kaye ever been in the
same movie
together? What about Rocky, he and Bullwinkle used to be inseparable. I
didn't know
that Bullwinkle was moonlighting with Danny Kaye and Skelton?"
and many others.....

Listen pal, this list is already too big as it is. Second, I
answer questions far more frequently then I ask them. The fact is that
this is not the forum to ask about burning CDs. If you have a problem with
that, you don't have to respond to any of the questions that I might ask.
If you really want to discuss DMCA, DeCSS, 2600 case, Skylarov case and
burning CDs then go to Slashdot.org or an appropriate linux newsgroup. Here,
I want to read about oracle and only about oracle. Did I make myself clear?
