Washington DC
By day, a consultant for NOVA Web Development. By evening and weekend, he dons his costume (which looks remarkably like the jeans and T-shirts he normally wears), and goes out doing battle against the forces of proprietary software. He was the team contact for the Ubuntu DC "LoCo" and one of the hosts of the former OLPC Learning Club/Sugar Labs DC. (He has also served as a Red Hat Ambassador.)

P.S. HacDC borders on being militantly FOSS. ;-)
Personally, I read English left-to-right, top to bottom, and feel old: Almost every web site I use becomes ever more vertical. This site now uses less than one-third of the available horizontal space available to me, making scrolling ever more necessary to read content. Although you say you've actually widened it. I think for me, maybe the removing of the dark gray has made the sides feel too bright and highlights the emptiness of the screen...
I like the thinner top of the page though.
