Adrian Lano got his first computer, a venerable Commodore 64, at the tender age of six. Somewhere along the line, he developed a twisted, yet oddly romantic, view of electronic etiquette. Today, at age 22, Lano roams the country by Greyhound, flopping in abandoned buildings. But he's never far away from a Kinko's -- and another caper as the "homeless hacker," the criminal mastermind who's cracked corporate Web sites as prestigious as Yahoo!, where he once edited himself into news stories. Lano's always been a friendly pest -- he even helps companies repair the gaping holes through which he's driven his laptop. Nonetheless, he was born to hack, and he tells SF Weekly staff writer Matt Palmquist he's working on his biggest job yet.

David Freeman, adviser to two presidents, who says we need to move to a hydrogen-powered economy today, and we don't need the fuel cell to do it.
