@Paul you have hit the nail on the head that is exactly the purpose of the site.
@Matthew - The site is NOT dishonest every example provides a solution that is viable. I think you have some misguided deeper issues and appear to see this as some sort of 'Coldfusion is better that .Net' battle, it;s not! You are entitled to your opinion but I cannot just stand by and have you say the site is dishonest when it is not. Maybe instead of being obstructive you should be a bit more constructive, On Wed, Jun 23, 2010 at 10:40 PM, Bobby Hartsfield <bo...@acoderslife.com>wrote: > > Well put. > > .:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:. > Bobby Hartsfield > http://acoderslife.com > > > -----Original Message----- > From: Eric Cobb [mailto:cft...@ecartech.com] > Sent: Wednesday, June 23, 2010 3:28 PM > To: cf-talk > Subject: Re: cfdot.net > > > Calling him dishonest is very short sighted on your part (to say the > least!).
