Umm...I did not really intend it to be humorous... (don't worry, no offense taken)

In my current and past research and daily tasks, I am encountering all 3 classifications. My first exposure to this was my work on rollback segments. I quickly realized that there was a lot of mythology and lack of understanding, strongly supported by documentation, papers and presentations. When I really dove in to 9i Automatic Undo, it was reinforced.

Have a good weekend,
Daniel
