Richard getting involved with security matters is always good for...
food for thought.

Imagine the headlines: Kofi Anan frees Richard Stallman. So, I walk
in and Richard relates the entire situation to me in front of the
audience present, including more than one government minister, and other
folks arriving for the panel. I humorously remind Richard that he and I
both have immunity as delegates, and he responds "Well, perhaps then I
should have killed Bob Kramer". Kramer is the CompTIA representative who
comes along to these things to relate an pro-software-patenting and
generally anti-Free-Software viewpoint which gets Richard very steamed
up. There's a laugh, and I explain that our immunity probably doesn't go
that far. Richard goes on to say that he wouldn't really kill anyone,
but no doubt UN Security has heard this entire exchange too.
