Lazarus Long (Robert Heinlein character)
Recuring character in Robert Heinlein's novels...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lazarus_Long
A rugged individualist with a distrust of authority, Lazarus drifts from colony world to colony world, settling down for a few years or a few decades and leaving when things get too regimented for his taste—often just before the angry mob arrives.
The Lazarus Long set of books involve time travel, parallel dimensions, free love, consensual incest, and a concept that Heinlein named pantheistic solipsism—the theory that universes are created by the act of imagining them, such that somewhere the Land of Oz is real.

that's what I was leaning towards too, but it's been a long time since I've read a Heinlein book. I just remember that Lazarus was one of my characters of his.

Sauron, The Great Enemy
ahh yes he's that libertarian chap.
His books seem pretty interesting... perhaps I'll give one a peak.

DO SO.
I've been reading Time Enough For Love. It's epic.
And yeah, I have an intuitive feeling Lazarus is ILE. That's my first guess, then.
