It is like the Wall Street getting ex-hippies during the early 80's.

Eventually food on the table is needed and there is a family to feed and mortgage to pay, and working for the man isn't that bad as one once thought.

Or the ex-hippies knew very well that Woodstock is just a stage (pun intended) and didn't take it that seriously.

I mean, almost all prominent tech companies had those people at one stage or another. Nothing forbade them from listening to the Beatles in their Buicks or counting fat stacks to the sounds of Yellow Submarine.

I think Stallman, and having been at his session done at CERN during 2003, I did actually got to talk with him, doesn't agree with the stage thing.

I meant the hippies that eventually became high ranks in finances/tech (in terms of pay and Buicks per garage ratio).

That may be.
