Hehehe! I got some of the original 2100000 shares! And the little transparent plastic cube that Oracle issued to all subsidiaries back in 86 with the miniature prospectus book inside it. It's been sitting on my desk at home since then.
Me a hoarder? Well, most of my woodworking hand tools are well over 100 years old, with quite a few in excess of 200. Now, THAT's hoarding! :-)
