Thanks Bill for your kind words. Happiness and good health to you and your family during this holiday
season and in the future. I want to personally thank you for your efforts during the past 16 weeks. You made an unknown subject a lot more palatable, especially to those of us that didn't have a clue.   
  Edward Reichert

Thanks for the follow-up and also thanks once again for the class last week. Even though I have done quite a bit with SQL over the years, the Oracle specific topics were of special interest and usefulness to me. I look forward to seeing you again at my next class.  
  Patti Kohut

"Bill, just a quick note to say 'Thanks Again' for another well-paced AIX class. Albeit, dryer subject matter, but very useful nonetheless as I immediately made my newfound knowledge work on Tuesday and I was 'walking the steps', PS1, PWDing and 'waltzing the tilde' with the big boys in the Manugistics environment. Just enough to be dangerous now . . ."
    John Kulberg

"Bill, Enjoy the Holidays!!! I've enjoyed learning all the new (at least it is new to me) technology in the form of SQL and  PL/SQL, but, it's your ability to mix education with a firm basis in practicality that made the classes even more enjoyable."   
  Thanks again,  
  George Crandall
