1- I find your tone insulting, and it takes away from this community and marks you as someone with problems.

2- I made some assumptions here based upon the nature of this post:
i. do you think this person has a billion users on there website when they are posting here for advice?
ii. do you think this person operates a web site with 5000 simultaneous connections and is posting here for advice?
iii.do you think that this person is african?

now, silly me, trying to be helpful, made some educated guesses as to this persons goals. i assumed they wanted to grab ONE users info from a database. I said that if they are establishing a connection, the cost will not be that much greater to store and retrieve all data there compared to the cost of making the connection. Once again, i am assuming that this person is not storing the persons genome. Does this show me "not understanding databases"? If it does, maybe you could point out SOME FACTS WITH BASIS IN REALITY in a non-snide manner, not conjecture about Africa.
