Re: And as long as they have cash to pay . .

It's not a sound career strategy either, until actual physical, litigable damage happens. I've been kicked off projects for simply being too vocal about the "right way" (not recently). The basic reason is ego. The pointy ones have too much ego invested in bad ideas.

I know that

I suggested Java controls over ActiveX ones when they wanted clients to access their Intranet apps and the client had MacOS with Netscape or Windows 95 (NoIE) and Netscape. Every web app I developed, my manager would ask me if I put Java into it and if so please remove it. *Sigh* I mention Java one time to solve a problem and I get branded for life. No I did not sneak Java into my web apps, I used ActiveX instead as the manager wanted.
