@hayles On the other hand, I seem to remember it going badly for Calvin and Hobbes.

I do love the Boagworld podcast. I’m not that into web design, I just like hearing @marcus67 and Paul teasing each other.

God, how I hate doing anything at all with Oracle client software. It’s always so tragically *hard*.

After four hours, have succeeded in copying a table from one DB to another. Considering just typing all the data in again for the next one.

@mhoulden Also have three different Oracle clients and have three different versions of SQL Server. Not confused at all.
