On Thu, 7 Jun 2001,Hillman, Alex scribbled on the wall in glitter crayon:
->I am not talking about getting rich. $100/hr is not near rich in my opinion.
->What I am talking about is to get as much money as possible for one's work.
->Now, I do not know how many copies of your book DBA 101 were sold (by the
->way in my opinion very good book - regretfully it was published a little
->late for me).
i don't know, my copy [well highlighted and scribbled in] is next to me while i work
and i still learn things from it. bought a copy for my Jr. DBA to train from too.
seems to have worked well for that too. and i have been at this DBA stuff for a few
years now.
as for writing a book, no way i'd try to make money from it. if i ever take part in
that activity, i'll want to write it the way i see it and not worry about making money.

You gotta program like you don't need the money,
You gotta compile like you'll never get hurt,
You gotta run like there's nobody watching,
It's gotta come from the heart if you want it to work.
