  I was thinking of starting this thread too.
  
  CEans, if you don't have one person you can think of immediately.. do a little research about your favorite companies and tell us the names of their technical heads, CTOs, Engineering teams et al.
  
  We will try our best to contact them and get some awesome interviews. 😎

  James Gosling never responded to our requests 😔. I'll note his name and try again. Dr. Kalam was contacted, but we never heard back from him.

  arnabray a.k.a Greatbong.
  
  He is a computer science Phd who is currently working in USA.
  
  Also author of the famous blog - The Greatbong Blog & Podcast – Dispensing unsolicited opinions since 2004. The blog deals with political humor and current affairs.
  Recently he wrote a horror novel - #-Link-Snipped-# . It is perhaps the first mainstream novel from India in the genre of horror and psychological thriller.
  
  What I find interesting is how he juggles between Computer science research and horror story writing.
  
  Here is him talking at IIT Kgp festival.

  Will do a little research about his profile.

  From what I have seen on his blog , he very rarely speaks about Computer Science stuff , mostly he writes humorously on current affairs and politics . So if he agrees , it would be interesting to know what his views on Engineering are and how he dedicates his time to two very different fields namely comp sci and literature.
