Books of Moshe?From your FAQ: Which books did Moshe write?
You left out a few.
Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy
;-) (Moshe is the Hebrew name for Moses.) -
Your service in the Israeli Army
Assuming that I read your faq correctly, you served in the Israeli army in the 80's. Military service can be daunting, and often changes one's perspective on life. From my observation, this is even more pronounced with regard to intellectual people, and to those who had actual combat experience.
Did you have combat experience while in the army? How has it changed your philosophy on life? Has it affected you professionally? Does army service, whether in active units or miluim (reserves) have an affect on the company you recently founded? -
Fast compile serverLike every decently equipped developer, you have a compile server. However, you recently (2 months ago, IIRC) said that you wanted to accelerate the speed of compilation.
What solution have you used?
Did you look at using ram disks?

Hypocrite
In one story on your web site, you gleefully report on how you mentioned Linux in front of a "Microslobs" crowd. I'm assuming that you mean "Microsoft," but have butchered the name to sound more l33t.
At the same time, your "Community-related stuff" icon is a rip-off of the award-winning Windows Messenger icon. This sort of mock-the-hands-that-feed-you attitude is prevalent in the Linux world, where people write FUD-filled diatribes while shamelessly ripping off copyrighted look-and-feel mechanisms for their own personal benefit.
Do you feel that open source projects can survive in ways other than mimicking already-proven closed source projects? -

What area of law are you studying?
According to the FAQ on your website, you are currently studying for your first law degree. With such a heavy technical background, especially in CS, I am curious as to what area of the law you are planning on going into. Is it a technology-related area? It would be nice to have some more technically-capable people in the law profession, especially those who are Linux friendly. Or is going into law just your way of making money for that early retirement?

What was their expression???
After reading this cheerful little event I decided to ask you: what was the expression on the faces of these Microsoft executives, when you delivered your speech about Linux?
Talk about priceless :o)

Your new motorcycle
I read that your past rides have been a Harley-Davidson Softail, a Fat Boy, and a Yamaha Dragstar 1100. I believe I see a Harley Sportster laid into the graphic on the front page of your web site, so is that the new one on the way? 883 or 1200? Any special plans for it? Engine mods?
