| It seems like we need to come up with some new titles for some individuals. Nazim and izaltsman both reached 1,000 posts so they get a custom title. I just don't know what to give them. Any ideas out there? Nazim? izaltsman? Setbasedisthetruepath (which is waaaay to long a name :) got a solution posted for the reader challenge so he gets to a new title also. Setbased? Any thoughts?Anyone else have any suggestions? Post it here or email me.And I updated the title for 1,000 posts.===============================================Creating tomorrow's legacy systems today.One crisis at a time. |

| FYI, SetBased is going to be out of commision for the next couple weeks or so. I called him to let him know he won the challenge; he was delighted.I'd suggest "<O>" as a good title for him....<O> |

The router config went more smoothly than I thought.I would like my title to be:Relational SibyllineGraz, just read your article on my Yak submission; thanks for the kind words. With my work schedule I knew there was little chance I could compete with Fribble given a week's time - my only hope was a workable solution done quickly enough to merit attention  .Jonathan Boott, MCDBA |

| I see my attempt at creating mystery has worked! (and a not-so-subtle attempt to reach 500 posts ...)A Sibylline oracle was a individual in biblical times sought out for advice in moments of crisis or disaster. It sounded somewhat familiar to my current job description as a consultant .Jonathan Boott, MCDBA |

I thought Sibyls were specifically female. Or at least Merriam-Webster lead me to believe so.Regardless, congrats on hitting 500! |

I think Sibylline is a descriptor of the prophetic nature of the Sibyls, not necessarily the gender of the prophet...Maybe Sibyllesque would be more gender-neutral  (not that there's anything wrong with being a oracular girl  ...)Jay White{0} |
