Any self respecting Computer enthusiast, programmer or scientist will sport a beard. Do you wear one?

Just check out Stallman, the god of beards:

Otherwise, just put pictures of nerd/geek beards here biggrin.gif

Here's my Data Organization professor. I'm self-respecting but won't ever grow a beard. I'm sure Gabe is self-respecting and he won't ever grow a beard... I think.

I ironically share a similar name with this data organizer you speak of.

The computer industry seems to be far above the average when it comes to facial hair.

I did a quick search, looking for a particular post I'd once seen. Strangely, I found two, two parters. This one forecasts success or failure based on the beard. Hair 1, Hair 2. Of special note, the on Python dev grew a beard subsequent to part one; now that's commitment.

Another pair is more of a rogues gallery, with emphasis on the hair.

I half tempted to post a photo; I'm pretty sure I have RMS beat. tongue.gif

Edit: Python, not Ruby

But of course - I trust you sport facial hair similar to hagrid?

Edit: One of those links reminded me of an internet game I found once where it showed you a picture of someone and you had to guess whether they were a serial killer/rapist or a famous programmer/technologist; unnervingly, it was fiendishly difficult!

Edit2: One quick google later... http://www.malevole.com/mv/misc/killerquiz/

I got 8/10. I'm surprised they didn't have a serial killer programmer.

Any Unix admin I've ever worked for or met, has a long gray pony tail. Ironic!

What about the face of a liar & thief?
