Joel Garreau (principal of consulting firm The Garreau Group, in 1999 a reporter at the Washington Post):
The number of people who claim to have been part of that think tank would fill Yankee Stadium.
Shaun Jones (biomedical researcher, first director of DARPA’s Unconventional Coutnermeasures program):
There was no shortage of megalomania, although there was good reason for it.

I had some chats with Joel Garreau, probably lamenting the lack of adequate alcohol.
All posts are my own, and do not in any way reflect the opinions of my employer.
I'm a .NET Software Engineer currently working for Electronics for Imaging, Inc., New Zealand. I enjoy elegant code, as well as hacking away at HTML5, CSS3, JS et al. and am passionate about social media and mobile technologies.
In my down-time I have been known to allow myself to be dragged away from a computer in order to read a book, or even talk to real people!
Away from computers, I love to cook for friends (and my lovely wife, Naomi) and spend long afternoons dragging into the evening sharing a good wine or two.
I've built sqwi.sh, the WallaBee Store twitter feed, and 1plus1equals1.co.nz amongst other things.
Feel free to get in touch with me to discuss projects or potential collaborations.
