Let's recap... Frank suggested that instead of being jealous that people are
(perhaps badly) reinventing/implementing ideas that some of us have known
about for decades, that we realize that this is exactly how adoption of blue
plane ideas (e.g the Dynabook) always look - sloppy fits and starts for 100+
years. *Frank's suggestion* (I resisted making that all caps ;)) was the
insightful and powerful idea. It gets us nowhere to yell into a volcano. And
I think we can let Alan speak for himself.
