Issue #1:  The above comment is comical in light of the recent blitz of 
"client/server" postings that you guys have been posting.  Last time I
read one of your ads "client/server" was featured rather largely.  Roy
mentions intelligent database once, and you accuse him of taking  a 
"selling tone!"  Unbelievable.

In fact, I so agree with your overall message of not selling on the net,
that I might suggest that you to try it yourself.  


If people want technical information on the intelligent database you can 
call Ingres at 1-800-4-INGRES, and ask for the product data sheets which
discuss the features and the motivation for them.
