I think the work this guy is doing to make programming more accessible for kids is just as refreshing as his odd ball sense of humour. He does remarkable work.
50 years from now, programmers will probably be using people like _why as examples of people who are truly passionate about their craft and don't care about the personal "fame" that comes with their achievements...evidenced by the fact that no one knows his real name.
Fifty years from now all current languages will be depreciated and all but the most famous programmers will be forgotten.
I aspire to one day become one of the famous programmers. Real women will flock to me in droves and my every need will be satiated by my lines of code.
