Yes, you did. Repeatedly. On this and other threads, you've made the
statement at least three times that per-query hints are the only way to go
for 8.3. Your insistence on this view has been so strident that if I
didn't know you better, I would assume some kind of hidden agenda.
Stop harping on the "per-query hints are the true way and the only way", or
prepare to have people start simply ignoring you.
