Silicon Valley when I first got there in 1979 was the place where big change was coming fast. There's always been confusion about the power of individuals, even the richest ones -- they don't have the power to change the world, even though they're in the middle of the big change. If they weren't there someone else would be. The changes happening now can only happen because the systems they depend on are already in place. As individuals we get to make the art of the change, give it style, a message, make it usable, make it come into existence a bit faster perhaps. But the change itself is coming from evolution, not from individuals.
