I would love for Laszlo to come back to this thread and let us know what he's up to these days.
After all, he's only been away from the forum for around 7 months or so

He might of committed suicide. He paid $12m for two LARGE pizzas. I know I would.
No, he didn't. He's still around the bitcoin economy, just not this forum. I offered to send him another pair of pizzas about a year later for half price, he declined. I'd wager that he's far from bitcoin broke, though. At the time, 10K bitcoins literally had no known value. It's this historic transaction, and his willingness to engage in it, that established the price. Granted, the value of a bitcoin rose fast, both then and now, but someone had to be first; and that is why he did it.
