            I get that it’s kinda funny quirky, but honestly, free software (and also other forms of open source software) wouldn’t exist in the form they do today without his contributions to GNU and the GPL.

            I’m not going to make fun of someone for staying true to their principles.

              His contributions are immeasurable and worthy of legend. He is also a very strange bird and that can’t be swept aside.

                Strange is right! I once attended a seminar he gave. He stopped in the middle, and refused to proceed, until he was provided with Diet Coke. Truly strange.

    Ate an organic carrot once. Now I moderate an autism sub. Organic vegetables, not even once.
