With these skills I could have created a prototype of a rich CRUD client/server application in a couple of days. However, that was the sunset of the client/server era.

I mourn for the poor users who've been made to suffer web-application hell in the name of progress. But I've begun to see a little of that old magic again with Ruby on Rails. Hell no it's not perfect and no I don't get paid to develop with it, but at least it gives me hope...
