I saw stallman speak at my university and I agreed with everything he had to say. Im also a long haired hippie freak type who wears a mask so in some ways im a bit like him in mannerism. He felt like he would fit right in at a filk. Lastly I had a friend who was an emergency room nurse who looked just like him who I miss. He died of cancer. Sucks. Im a bit over 20 years younger but the way life has gone Im pretty sure, if im not dead, I will be at his age in the blink of an eye. If anyone wants to comment on hes bad because of xyz. Well I don't give a fuck.
