Do you find it interesting that many many well respected tech CEOs and project leaders could be characterized the same way? One might go so far to assume that a forceful personality is somewhat necessary to successful project leadership. I think random people celebrating his birthday is a bit overboard, but arguably the projects he's worked on have benefited from his sometimes abrasive personality. I don't think it's unreasonable to admire that contribution.
