All this talk about being hung from BB and grumbler must be because they are compensating for something.

For what?
Women want me. Men want to be with me.

Quote from: Tamas on October 26, 2011, 03:45:44 AM-my original point was that Marty specifically said that if we don't care what kind of person Da Vinci or Newton was, we shouldnt care for Jobs either. Which is wrong on some levels, most notably on the fact of thinking that Jobs contributed to culture and science on the levels of those dudes.
Also I think great art and science is kind of about transcending human-ness.  Great businessmen and politicians are normally great because or in spite of their very human flaws.

I don't know if that counts in Jobs's case because this feels a little Princess Diana to me, but maybe it does.

I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011
