Thanks for sharing these! I assume this is in response to the interview he did last week?
well, given that these predate that interview by some time, probably not.
if you mean they are being mentioned here because they were mentioned there, yeah, probably.
I remember running "finger johnc@idsoftware.com" multiple times per day to keep tabs on what he had to say.

Yup, as you guessed the second one.
