Stallman is quite a character in person. I blogged a speech he gave at a UN meeting in Geneva a few years ago: "Stallman took several Thelonious Monk-like breaks in his presentation. He would occasionally exercise his left arm by raising it up and down like he was lifting dumbells. He would yawn and stretch his torso, then arms and hands, reminscent of Kipling's description of Father Wolf stretching his paws "one after the other to get rid of the sleepy feeling in their tips." At one point in the middle of his remarks he paused, announced to the audience, "I'm cold," and walked away to find his jacket, leaving the moderator at a bit of a loss. The audience took it all in stride, with many people grinning and enjoying Richard's unusual style."
