Here is a story...

Once upon a time on a train from Delhi to Mumbai there were three passangers, one young teenager boy, one teenager girl and one old man. On the journey the the boy and the girl start talking to each other and get to know each other and soon become friends.

By the time they reach Mumbai they become so close to each other that while getting down they kiss each other. The old man just looks and thinks that these young people have no manner these days.

From the boy's point of view it was the right thing to do as they have become so close. But from old man's point of view this was not necessary and shameless.

Now had the girl kissed the old man instead of the boy, would the old man have refused. No never.

The thing is, for one it may be the right thing but for other it may be wrong.

So for Larry it is the right thing, but for Craig Conway its wrong.

Had today Craig Conway been the CEO of Oracle and Larry as Chief of Peoplesoft, that statement would have been given by Larry against Craig Conway.


"It was like Craig was driving by, spotted a really nice wedding in progress and crashed it with a shotgun and said, 'This bride is going to marry me' at the end of the barrel."
- Peoplesoft Chief Larry Ellison.
