I'm certain HJR DID read what you posted, hence the glorious response you received.

He's understood it perfectly, from what I read.

Of course he doesn't, but you may find many of his scripts for Oracle won't work on any of the 'newer' releases, like 9i and later versions...and he's been in the thick of a situation where he posted copyrighted content from HJR on his website without attribution:
