The Oracle America's Cup team has pulled off the greatest sports comeback of the twenty first century.
However, even Larry must have noticed the muted applause, and distinct lack of media coverage.
Here, in Silicon Valley, where Larry and I live and work, we are all concerned with the business of electronic communications, how to use technology to make work easier, and fun more accessible.
But we also recognize that unbridled competitiveness is extremely destructive. Attorneys are not gladiators and courts are not the coliseum. Unless we refund and energize the old Legal Aid system, the rich will continue to say, "I will fight you in court until you run out of money. And I have WAY more money than you do."
You do not have to actually read the Story of Midas or watch Citizen Kane, but the synopsis in Wikipedia will miss the emotional impact of turning your daughter into a golden statue or the stark black and white images of a lonely death surrounded by so much stuff that most of it is still in boxes.
