mastering oracle trace data

I was ribbing Cary about missing his unconference session (due to migraine and alarm malfunction). Lenz Grimmer and I both tweeted him to see where he was and in return we received this message in reply.

Very generous indeed. Unfortunately Lenz was flying home so he couldn’t make it. I had a conversation with Cary about it saying I wanted to come, but felt weird about accepting a freebie, so I thanked him for the offer and left it at that.

The first product I ever created after leaving Oracle Corporation in 1999 was a 3-day course about optimizing Oracle performance.
