One of the things that I'm most thankful for is the community that has grown around SQL Server Central. I don't know where I'd be without this hub of knowledgeable people and Steve Jones' persistence in keeping this site up as the best site in the world for SQL Server in so very many ways.

An example of such humble but effective teaching excellence is the author of this thread, Mr. Grant Fritchey. If you look at things like the list of videos and books and presentations at SQL Saturdays and PASS and articles and his ScaryDBA.com blog, you'll see what I mean.

And so I'll say "Thank You" to all of those (there are too many to list), both past and present and some future rising stars, that have helped and will continue to make this community what it is.

RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.

You're way too humble. Of course, that's also a part of what makes you so good. 😀 Thanks for what you and the other heavy hitters do.
