Thierry Bardini Bootstrapping

Cover: Douglas Engelbart, inventor of the mouse. Firm lips, hooked nose. Judging by his hand gesture, he's in the middle of making an important point. Notice the grey streak of hair that's glued to the rest of his head with gel. There seems to be a wire coming out of his left ear.
