"There comes a time when for every addition of knowledge you forget
something that you knew before"...

I think I've come to that time. I've been a member of this
list from the beginning, and for a time an active
contributor. I've come to value the advice and wisdom and friendship of
the PowerHouse community, in person on courses, at conferences and at a
distance. Alas, I haven't used PowerHouse for several years now, having
moved on from being a 4GL evangelist to being a minor academic in a
small institution way down in Nelson, New Zealand. It's time I stopped
lurking, but I couldn't let go without this farewell. 

I started with Quiz 1.04 from Quasar Systems (way back in 1979?). I
remember the twins (Quiz and Quick). I've got a video of Bob Deskin
teaching one of the original Advanced PowerHouse courses - its good to
see that some of the people are still around. I became a PowerHouse
instructor myself, and am pleased to see some of my erstwhile pupils
still contributing to the list (and others I know are still lurking).
But I've got to go. Too many other things to try and remember, hence the
quote at the beginning (from Sherlock Holmes).

Thanks to Cognos and the PowerHouse community for a great journey. John

Zealand)
