While i fully agree with the position of author not being responsible entirely, i find it hard to believe it happened the way it appears to be. It could be but there are bunch of loopholes. - I can believe that he was lousy enough to click no "delete" on users table. I can believe that he when the dialog box asked "are you sure you want to drop this table" he clicked yes. I can believe that after deleting he "committed" the transaction. But what i can't believe that the database let him delete a table which was base for every other table implemented by a Foriegn key constraint ? It could be argued that due to efficiency they hadn't put constraints on the table but it's hard to digest. Probably the story is some what tailored to fit to a post.
