I saw your review of "Just For Fun" which I have just now started reading. Looking at your library quickly I also saw "The Man Who Loved Numbers" which I loved. These quirky smart guys fascinate me. They are truly lovable people. My brother worked with Linus and that's how I got my copy of Linus' book. I'm going to have to take a closer look at your books and see if I can find some more good ones to read. And about your comment...I think that the money thing is good up to a point. But once that point is met, and if your life in general is satisfying, then more doesn't really do anything for you. I'm guessing that is what Linus thought.

Have a great day. And thanks for the review.
