Worthwhile

I'm posting here very late in the day for me; just finished a truely delightful (but hard work) two days of MySQL - being used to help in the management of episodic data for a long term disease so that research scientists can glean as much as possible from history that will give them clues and help them to find treatments to retard and hopefully cure a dreadful affliction. Such days / sessions make me feel how really worthwhile our work is, even if it's "n" levels removed from the actual people who can be effected by the results. So - I'm not apologising for posting so late - I was proud to be coding by first light.

And .... just look at the wonder of what's being done with Open Source.

This is a page archived from The Horse's Mouth at http://www.wellho.net/horse/ - the diary and writings of Graham Ellis. Every attempt was made to provide current information at the time the page was written, but things do move forward in our business - new software releases, price changes, new techniques. Please check back via our main site for current courses, prices, versions, etc - any mention of a price in "The Horse's Mouth" cannot be taken as an offer to supply at that price.
