   Thanks for the pointer to Marc Rettig. Interersting mind. Any chance that he’s the son of Tommy Rettig, the actor who played Lassie’s first master (before Timmy)? In his later years, Tom Rettig became a FoxPro/dBase guru and apparently a great guy. He died in 1996 and the only obit I saw said that he left two sons behind.

   Just seems like an interesting lineage if it’s so.

   Heh. I’m not related to Tommy. I used to get that question all the time back when I spoke at software development conferences and Tommy was fresher in everyone’s mind. Would be nice, ’cause then I could claim a sort of relationship to Lassie, which would be cool.

   I *am* related to Sam Rettig, who ran a still in the piney woods of East Texas way back in the last century.

   Spend a few seconds and think about this: Design is such a powerful concept. Design is not just about aesthetics you know, It interacts so much
   more than what you visually see. It interacts around experiences from different cultures, different usage, different mindsets. It can never be fixed. Innovative and cutting edge design reinvents itself. To go even deeper, it interacts on manufacturing, development, marketing, economies of scale, sales, philosophy, motives, lifestyle and almost what ever you can think of.
