Technology and Courage. Sutherland, I. 1991.
Technology and Courage [link]Paper  abstract   bibtex   
this paper, his spirit and joy are revealed: I, for one, am and will always remain a practicing technologist. When denied my minimum daily adult dose of technology, I get grouchy. I believe that technology is fun, especially when computers are involved, a sort of grand game or puzzle with ever so neat parts to fit together. I have turned down several lucrative administrative jobs because they would deny me that fun. If the technology you do isn't fun for you, you may wish to seek other employment. Without the fun, none of us would go on. Dr. Sutherland is presently Vice President and Fellow of Sun Microsystems, Inc. ---Ed. 4
