We're losing too many good ones
| | MacNelly was my age. Douglas Adams was four years younger. This is getting creepy. |
The Stallman Paradox
| | Like Jeremiah or Moses, he would simply overwhelm me. I won1t appear on the same panel him, but if you asked me to name five people alive in the world who have truly helped us all, Richard Stallman would be one of them. |
