My opinion is, technology has a marked effect on politics when... those who sell technology have a lot of money to influence politicians. : ) Patrice Boivin Systems Analyst (Oracle Certified DBA) Systems Admin & Operations | Admin. et Exploit. des syst�mes Technology Services | Services technologiques Informatics Branch | Direction de l'informatique Maritimes Region, DFO | R�gion des Maritimes, MPO E-Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -----Original Message----- From: Henry Poras [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, June 13, 2001 7:40 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Subject: What is Larry up to now? This was the lead story in the Boston Globe today: "The billionaire CEO of Oracle Corp. [Larry Ellison] is putting up $150 million to create an institute to study the effects of technology on politics and economics. But instead of cultivating a relationship with a particular school, Ellicon has made the offer to both Harvard adn Stanford universities - playing the academic titans off each other while he waits for them to make their best offers." hmmm. The effects of technology on politics and economics is an interesting topic if anyone wants to start a new thread on this (ep?).
