http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jimmy_Wales I wonder why on the English version of wikipedia it is not mentioned that Wales is an objectivist,while on the italian version it is mentioned that he is an objectivist, and also that he was the moderator of an objectivist mailing-list forum. He has a daugther named Kira! Are people afraid to say that are onjectivists once they become famous?

I think he simply wants to
I think he simply wants to be known as an internet entrepreneur who also happens to be an Objectivist. Nothing wrong with that.

Agreed, Jim!
Jimmy Wales
I met Jimmy Wales at the IOS Summer Seminars in 1994 and 1995. Interestingly enough he gave a demonstration of the World Wide Web in 1994 and that was the first time I had seen it. Jimmy has never trumpeted being an Objectivist, but doesn't hide it either. I think he simply wants to be known as an internet entrepreneur who also happens to be an Objectivist. Nothing wrong with that.
