Overwhelmingly I hear people refer to the leader of the Oracle Enterprise by just "Larry". Does he know we're all on a first name basis with him? I wonder what he thinks of that? It's kind of comical, and maybe representative of several social, psychological paradigms. Are we attempting to socially elevate ourselves by referring to a person of power and wealth on a first name basis? Is it something else? I sure don't know. But it did strike me as interesting.
