    When we were roommates I used to find Justin’s nut butter in all sorts of unexpected places.

  • nixiebunny

    Heck yeah! An engineer who also knows how to make a successful business. My hat’s off to her.

  • Jim Menard

    Facebook account required. AARRGGHH. Guess I won’t be voting.

  • LaylaSV

    Facebook registration is required to vote. That means that despite my love for Limor, my vote will go uncounted.

  • jonlebkowsky

    I happily voted for the spectacular Limor!

  • vance_tam

    As much as I feel that Limor deserves to win, I refuse to open an account with Facebook just to vote.
