   That's not the fault of the product. That direct and proximate   
   responsibility falls on you for being a dinosaur. How much code have   
   you implemented with bulk binding? How much with the model clause?   
   How much with analytic functions? How many materialized views with   
   refresh logs?   
      
   Why not just admit that you have reached the point in your life   
   where you want technology to stop and let you keep doing what you   
   did in neolithic times.
