Looking at Guido's Home Page I noticed that his picture shows a clean, healthy looking guy with all his hair.
I hereby cast my vote for Guido VanRossum for Least Ugly Open-Source Project Leader.

On a large machine that must pick it's way carefully through a delicate area, legs may be a decided advantage.
Scope ye the Plustech Harvester. It uses six hydraulicly actuated legs and a big-assed arm with a gripper/saw on the end to harvest trees from delicate areas.
Some guys I went to high school with use horses to harvest hardwoods from Indiana forests due to the trees inaccessability to wheeled vehicles.
A cat would be just as likely as a dog to run through the plasma field in pursuit of prey. The cats *ashes* however would be much more nonchalant as they dispersed.
Actually I'd rather see Tove (Mrs. Linus) do that. Probably more effective too, what with those mad judo/childrearing skills.

Oh, and Tortoise's Millions Now Living... is good too.

Another dandy in this vein would be Kurt Vonneguts Sirens of Titan. And of course who could go wrong with a salting of Robert A. Heinlein? Try a short story collection first, then maybe The Moon is a Harsh Mistress (which contains some food for thought in light of our country's new preoccupation with "liberating" other nations). Any Stanislaw Lem. Ooh and I have yet to run onto a Bruce Sterling book that does not scrape the mucous off my brain - especially the Scizmatrix stories.
I have been looking around for Wall St. pundits taking that position. Does anyone have any links to street types saying "This lawsuit is an attempt to force IBM to buy SCO"?
The thing that puzzles me is that I call all my female friends "man" (as in "hey man, toss me a soda from the cooler") when we are hanging out. My wife first pointed it out to me that I don't do the same to her... it was the first time it really hit me that I had been unironically using "man" as a gender-neutral term.
I thought it was kind of charming to have the perl code at the end of the novel... it was kind of like someone yanking my cat-3 out of the wall whilst I was reading Phrack in 1989!:-)
One thing the oft-maligned Theo DeRaadt is doing with the newest versison of OpenBSD is using ProPolice... which of course breaks a large amount of the ports tree. Luckily for we OpenBSD users the Ascended Masters who write and maintain our OS don't mind sacrificing comfort for correctness!:-)

My Gh0d you can troll! You are subtle like Fu Manchu, erudite like Christopher Hitchens and a real smart feller, besides.
Always nice to have your brain leave skidmarks
Stubby troll fingers
insinuate, chortle.
prostrate yourselves, chumps.

Perhaps iRobot could produce the "aquaRoomba" to fsck the salt from the electrodes.
How about it science?
Yeah, but then you have to compost all the cat peelings.
Wotta stench!
I'm kind of curious about that myself...
And to think I was all prepped to see how well bit torrent worked on something as slashdotted as this! Alas!

Legs are useful!
According to Spider Robinson, MindWipe and MindWrite have been in use for nearly a decade.
DeathKillers must sadly rise above the monkey customs of their lessers.
I disagree.
A cat would be just as likely as a dog to run through the plasma field in pursuit of prey. The cats *ashes* however would be much more nonchalant as they dispersed.

Stuff sneaks up on you.

GAD, that hurt.

Can you provide a link to that story on wsj.com? I cannot find it.
That is bizzare. I had never seen that statistic. I closed my bookstore after 6 years. We were making money, I was just ready for something else.
Wow! I'm a statistic!
OF COURSE all these things will help.

Yeah, that stuck out for me, too. NYT fact checkers my adamantium arse.
Heinlein needs a museum all to himself. I vote we put Spider Robinson and Yoshi Kendo in charge.
Actually I think FORTH has that baliwick... or is that footing yourself in the shoot?
Does anyone else have trouble setting convergence properly with anti-aliased fonts?
I am going cross-eyed here...
