+<h2>Interview with Crazy Pete</h2>
+
+<p>
+<strong>Interviewer</strong>: Tell us a little about yourself. Who are you? In 
what way are you associated 
+with GNU or free software?
+</p>
+<p>
+<strong>Crazy Pete</strong>: Well, I developed a GPL conversion tool that is 
avalible at <a 
href="http://www.honeyrigs.com/cgi-bin/convert_units.rb";>http://www.honeyrigs.com/cgi-bin/convert_units.rb</a>.
 It is written in <a href="http://www.ruby-lang.org/en/";>Ruby</a> although I 
have developed commercially in <a 
href="http://www.research.att.com/~bs/C++.html";>C++</a> most of my life.
+</p>
+<p>
+<strong>Interviewer</strong>: How old were you when you started to program?
+</p>
+<p>
+<strong>Crazy Pete</strong>: When I started to actually program computers, I 
was about 25 I think. I were somewhere in my mid 20s. Although I had started 
studying binary, hexadecimal and octal numeric systems when I was about 16 
because I knew that in 10 years, computers would be common.
+</p>
+<p>
+<strong>Interviewer</strong>: Tell us about your working environment.
+</p>
+<p>
+<strong>Crazy Pete</strong>: I work on free software at home and upload the 
work to a server.
+</p>
+<p>
+<strong>Interviewer</strong>: Do you think that free software can be useful 
commercially?
+</p>
+<p>
+<strong>Crazy Pete</strong>: Yes! I think it allready have been. Free 
Unix-like operating systems have the dominant share of the server market for 
example.
+</p>
+<p>
+<strong>Interviewer</strong>: What do you think is good about free software?
+</p>
+<p>
+<strong>Crazy Pete</strong>: I think it is good because it promotes free 
exchange of ideas in the same way as scientific journals do. Just as scientists 
working at universities (as opposed to working at drug companies) we allow each 
other to freely build on each others work and just as published scientific 
works allow students (at least at universities that have access to the 
journals) to learn from them, free software allows budding programmers to see 
"how things are done, and of course, access to the source code assists in 
debugging and software quality because the entire world can inspect the code if 
they wish.
+</p>
+<p>
+<strong>Interviewer</strong>: If a kid asked you how to learn program in the 
most efficient way, how would you answer?
+</p>
+<p>
+<strong>Crazy Pete</strong>: I would say the best way is to find something 
that interests you and develope an application to support it. Then i would 
recommend that they read books to learn how to develope in the language of 
their choice and to look at source code that is available to see how 
experienced people do it.
+</p>
+<p>
+<strong>Interviewer</strong>: Thank you for your time and good luck with 
developing free software in the future!
+</p>
+<p>
+<strong>Crazy Pete</strong>: You are welcome and good luck to you too!
