Myspace?

Is his myspace account real? http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendID=39317572&Mytoken=9E5DCCB2-1131-1041-31626DE32C32E8C775833097

Hah-ha! No, that is a phoney.

Personal

Doesn't John C live primarily in Albany, CA? (next to Berkeley) --jimmied999 16 February 2007 (UTC)

Height

Is the listed height of 5 foot 13 inches an inside joke of some kind?

New Worth?

Recent online drama about being drunk on an airplane and refusing orders to leave. Described as a "billionaire" in the video, and at first I accepted it, but now I read this Article it seems HIGHLY UNLIKELY. Missing from the Article is his net worth, which is standard in many Articles about wealthy people, but now I wonder if he even qualifies as "wealthy". My read on his overall character based on the information in the Article is more along the lines of "attention whore" in the Youtube "anything goes for clicks and attention" tradition, and so now I wonder if he's noteworthy enough to even merit a Wikipedia Article. Maybe he should shove some green beans up his nose and upload the prank on Youtube.2603:8082:DB40:2E:E971:C71:4EF2:BB60 (talk) 20:54, 4 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Your comment apparently is referring to a completely different person, Carl Dvorak (no known relation to John C. Dvorak). FCGreg (talk) 22:30, 14 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
