Yes, John, I'm talking about you. The discussion was about PHP
tutorials, and Erwin the courses at w3schools.
And you had to hop in there and comment about how you would not
recommend w3schools - based on your experience with a single course.
And you don't offer any alternatives.
And if you have a problem with one Microsoft product, do you claim ALL
products from Microsoft are bad? Or if you use one thing from
HotScripts, SourceForge or whatever, do you claim everything they have
is terrible?
