Well, good people, I'm finally back...in the employ of another company, in another state. Some of you will remember me as the website developer for the Foulston Siefkin law firm in Wichita, KS (www.foulston.com). I'm now doing support work for the English Language Acquisition department of Denver Public Schools...which means my work product won't ever see the light of the public eye, but will be more in line with my personal belief system about contributing to society. :-) At any rate, I'm buried up to my armpits in fixing ADP frontends for SQL server databases - the former two programmers that I replace cranked out lots of little independent apps without regard to how things might be designed better (translation: I've got at least 10 ADPs with a bunch of hardcoded dates in them that are constantly failing). Within a few months I hope to have everything working smoothly again and begin the mo better path to a mondo web app that replaces all of the ADPs. I've missed you guys terribly...I basically flew back and forth between Denver and Wichita all summer (weekends in Wichita with family), and finally moved the family out here in late August when we found a house. We leave behind a large, close extended family and a great church - and move into an area where we don't know anybody and the only churches look like warehouses (we finally found one five miles away in another town that is promising). It's been rather jarring; I think the kids are slowly settling in and making new friends, but occasionally we all have somber moments when the enormity of it hits. I know a lot of you move around at the drop of a hat...we've spent the last 30 years in Wichita, with deep roots and a large support network. Simple things like finding libraries, post offices and Mexican restaurants aren't a matter of hopping in the car and going any more...gotta look them up, figure out the map, etc. :-) Anyway, hope you'll have me back. Won't be able to contribute substantially until I get back into webbie development...haven't done anything webbie for at least four months now. It's all slipping away...
