I'm aware that we have veered from the original subject of Animal's post, and I apologize for that - I just wanted to post Hitech's statement of some years ago verbatim in response to Brooke's reference to it, to add actual numbers to the discussion.
I also want to say I appreciate Animal trying to come up with ideas that can be implemented without requiring coding changes or enhancements. He's just trying to work with what we have. I don't know if anyone but Hitech knows whether coding changes are even possible at this point. Having worked in the past as a programmer myself, I shudder at the notion that one person, without so much as a test arena or group of testers, can handle all phases of design, development, testing, rollout to Production and the inevitable bug fixes and patches. It is daunting to say the least.
Having said that, I still believe there are few things that are beyond Hitech's capabilities as a developer.
