I work at Sun Microsystems.
The opinions expressed here are my own,
and neither Sun nor any other party necessarily
agrees with them.
I don’t think many this side of the Pacific will notice, but I’d like to take a moment to note with sorrow the sudden death of Kikuta Masahiro, an independent thinker and independent businessman, founder and CEO of Synergy Incubate, a genial guest and gracious host. We ate and drank well and laughed lots together, both sides of the Pacific; my sympathy goes out to Mrs. Kikuta Yasuyo. The world in general and Japan in particular could use more like them.
