Assuming IIc is an Apple reference, I'm pretty sure Steve Jobs asked people if they did LSD during the interview and didn't hire them if they were squares.

That’s pretty close to what I was getting at. Without violating too much confidence, the guy I’m talking about had a bit of a breakdown in the mid-80s, around when the IIc was released. With just a couple of small changes, I can’t even guess what he could accomplish.

Unfortunately, we fight a war on drugs and make people like that into enemies. I don’t think fighting is the solution and if it is, I’m still waiting for results.

It's a confusing one for sure. I thought he meant "a 2c" as in "one of the 2c class of drugs" which are similar to LSD.

That’s a neat coincidence. The guy I’m talking about started having problems in the mid-80s around when the Apple IIc was released.

LLC, limited liability Corp. I'm pretty sure that is what they are referring to.
