Perhaps instead of "a participant" I should have said "as if he is representative of hackers" which manifestly he isn't.

Now excuse me, I'm going to play my flute for a bit, then go and shoot something, and maybe write some more of my sex-advice column :-P

The concept that any one individual could be representative of hackers is fallacious, and neither does ESR purport to be representative of hackers, even though many of his views and his style of reasoning are indeed common amongst hackers.
