<LOL> ... Last year when I was helping a Regional Bank do a
MainFrame MVS to Solaris Migration (COBOL Programs), one of the
more interesting points was the software vendor made reference
in a meeting that the eventual goal was a migration and re-write
to MS-SQL and it's tools. (funded in course, by a MS ) ...

Since I do all my banking with this bank, I asked to let me know when
that was going to happen. When they asked me why, I replied that
at the time they did that, I would move move my banking to another bank
that would have a lot more security.

Needless to say, I pissed everyone off ... Seems I do a lot of that
these days ...
