J+, For once, Creamer makes sense. 12/10/97 My question is will people see Oracle for what I saw it: a global slowdown hurting almost all tech? Or will they see it the way my e-mail box read: Ellison's a big jerk, this has nothing to do with tech, the problems are Oracle specific, it doesn't involve personal computers, etc. etc. Had I not been on the conference call I might have thought the latter. And if I were big long tech and "lugging" -- Wall Street slang for being buried alive under a mountain of bad stocks -- I think I would have trashed Cramer, too. When you are long and wrong you tend to get a little over-the-top when someone speaks the truth against you. I know; I've been there, screaming at my own wife, when we used to trade together, about how nothing has changed, the sellers are all wrong, they don't know what they are doing. I was never, I repeat, never right when I showed that level of emotion. J!
