I love Informix-4GL.  I think it is an expressive and powerful system.
And I think Jamie get's too exicited in his/her criticisms and sometimes 
isn't always very careful ... like most of us are at times... :^)

But I like seeing most of Jamie's vigorous criticism's because they
relate to some important incremental improvements needed in
Informix-4GL.   So (Informix people) read what Jamie has to say and
take what he/she says with a smallint of salt. :*)  

Also, for people new to 4GL or using thoes other DBMS's once again
I love 4GL eve with it's blemishes.
