    I've heard him speak at a few of the FSF Associate Member meetings, and I've even had conversation over dinner with him on one occasion, where he was telling the rest of us about the fledgling SFLC project. Just listening to him made me want to start law school (at Columbia, of course).

    I'm convinced he's working with a larger percentage of his brain than the rest of us.

    Creating the SFLC was a brilliant move, as was the drafting of the GPLv3.

    Best of luck, Eben!
