[thelist] Must a webmaster know databases???

[Scott Dexter]

I guess what it comes down to is I see the Webmaster in the position of your

And interestingly enough, if we equate the two, the Entrepreneur becomes the
Kiss of Death, no? --Once built, the system of components (specialists)
would be self-sufficient....

Make sense?
