   Thanks but no thanks.  I'll rely on my brief encounter with this tour   
   de force in errors and omissions as having been enough reading about   
   Larry and his obsessions for a while.   It's a bit confusing to me   
   when it comes to Oracle people, but also Microsoft people as well,   
   are they passionate about the marketing or the technology?   ( I think I   
   already know the answer, no need to reply. )
