You're amusing ...

Do you imagine there is even one person at VSI that doesn't understand the 
issues, and doesn't sympathize with people wanting to play with an old VAX?

In addition to that, anyone staying current on working with VMS is a potential 
resource that just may help VSI.  Such as in a new VMS customer looking for some 
VMS experience.

Get off that soapbox ...
