Heh. I'm not going to comment there because RMS never intended himself 
to be the only reason why to use Free Software and you know that ;)

Not that I know of really, but what level "personality" do we need?

The MP for Loughborough [Labour], Andy Reed, supports Free Software to 
some extent (I was shocked when he knew what the Free Software 
Foundation was and could associate it with OO.o!) - so if you feel like 
writing a letter/email anyone...

But to be honest, it is going to be tricky to get Personalities - they 
firstly need to be the right sort of person, and if you are a celebrity 
etc. Usually you don't admit to being a techie to the hoards.
It tends to kill your career. :P

But don't get disillusioned, it is possible, just tough.
