[LA.pm] Geek Banquet

[Ofer Nave]

I think geek celeb means more people who are famous in the geek community, 
like Linus Torvalds, Alan Cox, Andrew Morton, Richard Stallman, Eric 
Raymond, Lawrence Lessig, Larry Wall, Randal Schwartz, Damian Conway, Dave 
Thomas, Matz (ruby), Guido Van Rossum, Sam Ruby, etc.

Though I wouldn't mind Wil showing up, of course.  :)
