And I'm just a trainer. But before this gig I've had years of work experience building software with a team of people. The only thing that Perl 5 has taught me is that Perl wasn't designed for people of average intelligence. If you're dedicated and hard working, however, it can do some pretty nice stuff that is either harder or nigh unto impossible in lesser languages. Since we seem to be firing up another burner on the grill, lets bring Java back into things. J2EE is just as complicated as Perl (and in fact more so). If you're going to argue that Perl is a bad language because its complicated, you're going to have to agree that J2EE is a bad technology because its complicated. -- Stuart Jansen e-mail/jabber: [EMAIL PROTECTED] "XML is like violence: if it doesn't solve your problem, you aren't using enough of it." - Chris Maden
