I think I like where you're going with this transparency Rich!  To highlight, here are a couple zingers I found in your answers to the questionnaire:

"Sadly, right now the IETF often looks more like a colonial empire than something like the UN."

"Akamai gets indirect value were I to become the Chair."

"I am not a professional standards person, I am an implementor who needs standards to succeed."

"I bring an understanding of what it means to be a respectful and inclusive person, knowing that I am a privileged member of society."

This last one is not a zinger but I wanted to include it because of its irony to me personally:  “We need to make sure that anyone with an interesting idea for an Internet protocol will feel welcome to bring it forward, and continue to feel welcome even if their idea has already been considered and dropped.”
