  • Congratulations, Jeff. I have read some of your work and we've even conversed over development standards. I've tried to employ everything I have learned from you and have become an anti-REBAR evangelist.

    A well deserved honor. Please keep up what you are doing. The entire SQL community benefits from your attitude, knowledge and dedication.

    Cheers!

    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.

  • Congratulation Jeff. Thanks for your articles as well.

  • The award ceremony in Seattle has come and gone. It was absolutely awesome especially since I got to put a check-mark next to some folks' names on my "bucket list" thanks to them being at the SQLServerCentral PASS Party where the award was given.

    Thank all of you again for the great honor you've given me.

    Thanks for all you have done to teach myself and countless others.

    If everything seems to be going well, you have obviously overlooked something.

    Thanks Ron. I met all 3 of the folks that hold the award from previous years and they're all great folks. The first one, Dan McClain, is a day older than dirt so, no pun intended, we've got things pretty well covered age-wise. πŸ˜€

    You and Red Gate sure do know how to throw a party, Steve. Thanks for everything you've done over the years as well.

    I did manage to get the piece of reebar Rodney presented me with home. That was way too funny to leave in Seattle.
