GRRM makes it a point to stay AWAY from all internet boards concerning his books. He doesn't want to know or be influenced by any theories floating around.
Of course, through conventions and whatnot he has heard of the R+L=J theory, but... the other ones, I'd be surprised if he DID know.
The 'Westeros' forum has some cracking threads and is chock full of spoilers, which I found out to my detriment some time ago! RE: A song of Ice and fire discussion - Valarya - Feb-20-2012

I used to post on those forums OFTEN back in the early 2000's. I think my post-count got over 2,000, actually. Hahah.
I love the spoilers I get at that site!! Any sample chapter ever written up from a reading I've read. In fact, I haven't checked it in a while (seems as I'm 100% sucked in to ROTE lately)!! I need to see if there are new sample bits for me.

2000 posts isn't all that much... 'thul have more than 25000 posts on one forum they frequent.
EDIT: make that around 26800 posts. (spread out over about 8 accounts)
EDIT2: It took 'thul less than a year to get to 2000 posts on said forum.

Did you just one-up me, 'thul beings?
It only took me about a year or less to get to 2,000 posts on the SOIAF forums as well. Then I broke off with about 50 people and created my own sub-forums for the books where it was a little less family-friendly and a lot more debaucherous, haha.
THEN the main-forums moved from ezboards to their current location, my post count went to 0 since everyone had to re-register and I just lost all heart to post after that.
RE: A song of Ice and fire discussion - 'thul - Feb-20-2012
its always sad to loose post count. these beings are mostly sticking around that other forum to talk to a few people there and to help manage the forums. Since the last roleplay there died, that number of people has shrunk quite a bit. 'thul just haven't had the will to bother setting up yet another... too few RPers left in that community, and even fewer of them with great skills at it.

I thought the current menu/doings of a Sydney restaurant may interest you ASoIaF fans. See The Voyager Blog for more info/links.

As a veggie, it doesn't really appeal to me, but I should imagine for the carnivores it would be a right royal knees up! The food served up in the books really is quite gross at times (most times actually) It took me some time to forget the image of roast swan and calf brains to mention but two!

Too bad its far away...

These beings have not, but they also suspect that you were speaking more to Farseer and/or Fool-ish.
