    The database of the future will require two DBAs: a person and a dog. The person will be needed to feed the dog. The dog will be needed to keep the person from messing with the database. :-\

      I first heard that joke in the previous millennium!

            That could well be, this is what I read in Wikipedia:

            Quote:

            The highlight of the play is considered by some to be Launce, the clownish servant of Proteus, and his dog Crab

              I think the original version was something like, "In airliners they will only need one pilot and a dog. The pilot is there to turn on the autopilot, and the dog is there to bite the pilot if he touches anything."

              The difficult we do right away... ...the impossible takes slightly longer.

                A DBA and a cat -- the cat is used to generate unique IDs.
