@ai6yr @GhostOnTheHalfShell @karlauerbach That tracks. I've seen him at Oracle World (Moscone, S.F.) but fortunately have never met him.
I HAVE, however, deployed a Shitload of Oracle (SUN E-Series, Oracle Cluster ... I was very good at Solaris/Oracle back in the day) during the .Com, including a company I founded to do Web-Based File Storage (cloud storage now) in 2k1 and my eyes water and my wallet pocket burns from Oravcle licensing (it's worse than you think).
He seems like a horrible ass.
