Brian Jepson is a "100-foot-tall nonstudent" who specialized in Social Sabotage as a student at the University of Rhode Island. His on-again, off-again coffeehouse, Cafe de la Tete, was part of a successful "culture jamming" experiment disguised as a program for mass liberation. Not content to enjoy the relaxed life of a coffee house operator and student, Brian made his way to Wall Street, where he remained cleverly disguised as a database programmer for many years. As he grew older and wiser, he worked more and more with free software, and encourages others to do the same. Brian has also written several books including Database Application Programming with Linux and the Perl Resource Kit Utilities Guide. He is now a writer for O'Reilly and Associates.
