You read it here first folks. That’s right – Marc Fleury is [taking the credit](http://jboss.org/jbossBlog/blog/mfleury/?permalink=29BACB37DCA06CA97C0DA84E5ECE1145.txt)…

From his blog:

> We rant about and believe in communities, brotherly love and hatred, promiscuous sex through code, and that tomorrow will be a better world because of what we are doing. The old delusional “making an impact on the world” is alive and well, and a lot of it right here at JBoss. Really I just wanted to meet The Man.

> **So Ben went to ask Hunter if he would do the interview, apparently he replied “I don’t give fuck all about software” and then committed suicide**.

Marc’s obit has some nice insights. Many bloggers have the spirit of gonzo journalists. Also – maybe there is still some room out there for counterculture… if only we could have it without the goddamn gun obsession. what is it with you guys?

Does anyone lobby for the right to arm bears? That would get the hunters’ jumping…
