'I am looking for the person who
- has been obsessed with one unfashionable question for years, and can tell you why the obvious approach is wrong
- builds in the open, or wants to, because they would rather the idea live than own it
- measures progress in decades, not quarters and decks
- is allergic to hype, and probably lives, physically or intellectually, some distance from it
- makes you say a sentence you did not plan to say
If this is you, I want to meet you.'
