Larry Ellison was speaking at an Oracle conference in San Diego earlier this week, and tossed out a few bon mots:
- "We bartered our privacy away for easy credit; why sweat our privacy concerns to track terrorists?"
- on his recent wedding, "Moving to a single instance is easier."- In the event of an injury, "The hospital will know that I can pay in 20 seconds. It will take 20 days to get my records."
