I kinda like this song, even though the lyrics are def more cheezy than my normal style.

Via Nipun Mehta:

At practically every meeting we’ve attended together, I inevitably end up telling Larry how much I’ve learned from him. And almost always, he cracks up and tells me how he needs to surround himself with youngsters like me who look to him with admirable eyes. :)

From a 26-year-old doctor who signed up to deliver a Native American baby on the occupied Alcatraz island in the 60s, to a bus journey to the East with the likes of Wavy-Gravy, to doing service at a Himalayan monastary for years, to leading a team of 150,000 doctors to eradicate smallpox in the world, to starting Seva Foundation (with the help of Steve Jobs and Grateful Dead) for the blind, to creating the technology that gave birth to the first online community (pre-Internet), to launching several business ventures including his latest one for building a nationwide Wi-Fi network, Dr. Larry Brilliant’s life truly reads like a movie script. And the story is far from over.

Although Larry has probably made the covers of all major media, I had yet to read an article that did justice to his spirit. But thanks to a recent GBN interview, here is Larry in his *own* words.
