[AccessD] Just ANother Old Boys Club

My Friend
You insult me.
This is no longer a user group, no matter what you have to say.  This 
was  one of the most vibrant groups I have ever dealt with. A community 
willing to express their opions on every topic. It has gotten to be just 
the old boys,  disussing topics of no relevance to ACCESS programmng.  I 
think it is indicating a demise of the  Access community.
