[AccessD] The list

Hey Guys
As I have said this list used to be wonderful. With minds that would astound
me with their knowledge, and I would be totally amazed with how do these
people know this stuff. But please let us be realistic. The list has become
sadly nothing more than a chat list. Hey All I have never seen a support
group like you guys. But it is getting so esoteric  and I am kind of seeing
the demise of Access. You guys have been great but I better move on or
follow the path of the dinosaurs. I will still be lurking but hey......

Best Wishes and a prosperous future to you all.

Adios, Tony.  And sorry to see you go. But I understand. 

For my part - I'm staying with the list.  They save my bacon at least once a
month. Less than in the beginning because I'm a better Access programmer now
than 15 years ago.  But any question I have about anything related to my
development I can count on the 'fine minds' you note to give me answers.
Recently I wanted to know about Parallels vs. Bootcamp. And I got the
straight skinny on that.

The chatter ain't about the election (which is why the OT list was created
12 years ago) or gardening.  The chatter is still like going to school every
day in my chosen field.  Even if I don't understand half of what Shamil
writes or have to wade through the occasional acerbic Colbyism, there's no
downside for me to scan the posts and get spoon fed more stuff.

Hey All

I have been on this list since 1994. There was a guy called Colby ,totally
true of heart but a very bumptious and annoying individual. This is not only
from me but concerns from others on this list I have talked to, that the
list has become a chat line. I do not see any new blood coming in and
offering or asking questions. All I see is the old boys club, and a lot of
"Off topic" chatter".  I have rarely seen  a new problem solved and yes I
will include myself.  I think you and myself have become dinosaurs. There
are so many brilliant minds on this list and all that knowledge is being
wasted.

 

Sorry Guys I am out of here.
