Subject:      Re: Training Wheels

Joe,

I gotta tell you, you'd be much more persuasive if you'd make an effort not to insult your target audience. The training wheels metaphor may be apt, but I'm certainly less inclined to listen to you when you repeatedly refer to me (and others who actually find macros valuable) as "toddlers". Or when you repeatedly reference macros, but never once leave out the derogatory adjectives. Hey, I've used SCL extensively in the past (and really enjoyed it) - perhaps I'm more a brat or a pest than a toddler??? If only we agreed with you enough to be considered adults...

Steve
