I'm not surprised. I think we all have the image of the young guy who dropped out of Harvard, but even we are 20 years past that news. :) Did he have interesting things to say?
Where'd you see him? It's rare to spot him outside his natural environs. They must have lured him out with things that blink and go 'beep', or perhaps the alarm call of a wounded Steve Jobs or Linus Torvalds. :)
I think he was either on his way from or to the ceremony where they awarded him an honorary Doctor of Laws. Now he has a degree! And from the place he left thirty years ago, even.
His Harvard commencement speech is really worth taking a look at, actually. And do you think Harvard only gave him an honorary degree so that the alumni association could start hounding him? ;)
