>>We met in one of the Sun buildings<<
Yes I went to one of those too. The expert pondered why people insisted on running java inside a browser rather than stand-alone. When I pointed out that it was so we could print, something there was no way to do from Java at the time(!), that seemed to be news.
Which was another lesson that it's easy to know an awful lot about very little, and we need to be careful that we pay heed to expert opinion only about the little.

"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
