I didn't know what they were and it is interesting how they and XML attempt to fix the same problems, that is the sharing of data between two different sources. Another interesting thing is how abstract SAP is from certain viewpoints. You and I talk about database tables and Java code, but in SAP, things are so completely abstract, it's sometimes difficult to think at the same level. You can hire consultants to just work on the configuration of a module in SAP. I would hate to think how much an SAP developer consultant would cost! Makes me really, really appreciate how I could understand what is on the inside of SAP if I had the chance to learn it because of my education.

I've probably told you before that I worked for the GIS dept of the Auditors Office of my county when I was a senior in highschool. It's definitely a department that pulls from many different types of technologies. Very cool. That sounds pretty cool.
