I read your posts and laugh, mostly due to the arrogance of them. Your over-inflated ego, along with your elevated sense of self-importance, are cause for concern with regard to your software. And your language; any professional would not be caught DEAD calling another a 'BUTThead', ESPECIALLY in print, which only proves to me you're in the same boat as another 'guru' who also passes off misinformation as fact and decides to sue or threaten those who call him on it (I'll not mention any names).

You haven't used a reference since 1996 and yet you presume to inform us of your endless expertise and insight into the internal workings of Oracle. Most of your responses on Metalink were shameless plugs for your less than worthy software; not the sort of responses expected by support-seeking users. You cannot be bothered to purchase your own domain for this 'product', citing the 'Google-ness' of geocities. Rubbish, rubbish and more rubbish. The road to Hell is paved with good intentions, and, apparently, spam using geocities as a launching pad. Leading unsuspecting junior DBAs to your less than worthy efforts is a sin, most assuredly. The greater sin, though, is to maintain your supposed superiority with respect to Oracle when, in fact, you haven't the wherewithall to actually tune a Tonka truck.

I stronglly suggest you get a grip, then get a clue. Then go about your software design again, this time with reliable and current tuning strategies, and a much less arrogant marketing strategy. You may find a more receptive audience.

Oh, and an omlette is simply a solution to the problem of what to do with several broken eggs (hopefully those that haven't hit the floor).  It is not now, nor ever was, a viable name for a software product, especially one touted as a tuning wizard for Oracle databases (and, yes, I KNOW it's spelled OMLET, although that doesn't make it any better of a name).

Unless, of course, you're planning on making an omlette out of the Oracle instances you tune with your product... Received on Thu Jun 10 2004 - 17:49:33 CDT
