texte = Hi Michael! I haven't been in Honolulu (except for a vacation) in eight years. I've actually been living in the Philippines since the year 2000. I got myself married and have a 5 year old son now too ... :) During my first year here I realized how skilled and affordable the local programmers are (they speak pretty good English too) so I established a "WebDNA Training Center" in downtown Cebu City and attracted thousands of applicants for only a couple hundred trainee openings. My goal was to train these guys (and girls) in WebDNA and then hire "the best of the best" so I could lease them out as subcontract programmers to folks like you for about $10 per hour -- my goals being to capitalize on my personal experience with WebDNA, support my programming colleagues with an affordable new service, and expand the global community of WebDNA programmers. Unfortunately I failed to secure enough contracts to keep more than a few of my new WebDNA programmers gainfully employed on a full-time basis, and that simply wasn't enough to cover my business costs -- so I reluctantly but successfully converted to PHP/MySQL since that's what most potential clients were demanding at the time. Ah well, live and learn! At least WebDNA has a new and better chance to become recognized for its true value now that Christophe and Donovan are at the helm these days. :) Sincerely, Ken Grome > Yes, Hey Ken. Glad to see you are still out there. Still > in Honolulu? > > Michael DeLorenzo
