I don't know why people always attribute these game-type things to me!

Chandru can tell you that Ken Simms & I did have a reputation for an
alternative work ethic.

I remember once Ken & I were on a fieldtrip to the 17481 Redhill
building and we ran into Max Malone (Our Big Boss, VP Software) in the
hall. He remarked, "There's a pair to draw to" -- meaning a pair of
goof-offs (writing games). Oh well, *** didn't think much of game
software either. It's a good thing nothing ever came of computer
games.

What a great life I've lived! (that's #28, I think Pauline).

I don't recall the code segment under discussion and that's saying a
lot since I was one of the few in those days not stoned, drunk or
surfing (pre-internet term) everyday.

Love to all,
Johnny B.
