Journal Editorial Report: The week's best and worst from Kim Strassel, Bill McGurn and Dan Henninger.
Images: AP/AFP/Getty Images Composite: Mark KellyI first got to know author Michael Lewis, then of “Liar’s Poker” fame, when in the mid-1990s I took him around Silicon Valley in an old beat-up convertible.
I told stories and showed him where the first integrated circuit and microprocessor were invented, plus Xerox Parc and its beanbag chairs, Hewlett Packard and Intel.
As we drove around, I shared my history with entrepreneur Jim Clark, his time at Silicon Graphics and early days with Netscape, and of the venture capitalist Glenn Mueller, who committed suicide after being denied access to invest.
