From: Brad Schulz on 3 Dec 2009 00:53 Well, I "know" Plamen because I've interacted with him at the MSDN T-SQL Forum and other corresponence. Unfortunately I've never had the pleasure of "know"ing Itzik or Gert-Jan. However, I'm glad you mentioned it, because I do have to say that it was Itzik's books that inspired me the most in entering the SQL Server world. They are my Bibles (with apologies to Paul Nielsen). --Brad "Abba" wrote: > >>He has better T-SQL > >> skills than anybody I know. > Not into comparison, however...how about Itzik Ben-gan, Gert-Jan Strik? >
