This is actually what I like about Richard.. he's *so* consistent.  I
would put money that you could not find a full interview with him in
which he doesn't not make those two points.  He will also refuse to
continue with any discussion (much less interview) if you don't use
the terms "free software" and GNU/Linux.

You may not agree with him but he's rock-solid committed to this and
*never* wavers.
