1) and 2) are related - describing how MAYBE he wants a Pepsi and maybe not, but only if he's sleepy, and following with comments on his sugar intake are unnecessary. Just say "have regular Pepsi available in case I would like some" and be done with it. Makes it much easier for those arranging the event to accommodate his requests.
As for 3), well that's the crux of the issue isn't it? It's clear RMS doesn't get how the rest of the world works.

How about "some", for starters. If I drop my wallet with only my dry cleaning receipt, but you know who I am and you know it's my wallet, you have an obligation to do more than just call the cleaners and ask whoever answers the phone there. Like, say, turning it into the police.
And you anti-Apple posters are cracking me up with your misplaced outrage, so I guess it all evens out. And no, it's not the idea of "a minimalistic design" that the court says Apple can own - just that particular one. The one they used for the iPad. The one that Samsung copied. That one.
