Comments:

In 1978 I wrote the very first Star Trek game ever written to run on microcomputers
(GR: and I remember playing it).

Sir Clive Sinclair might remember eating breakfast with me in Chattanooga at a Mensa Annual Gathering in the early 80's (note: claim to fame or claim to shame?).

When an editor for International Computer Programs Magazine came from Indianapolis to Saint Louis to interview me, he challenged me to write a game, and was amazed when I wrote the game in less than five minutes.

I enjoy teaching games to community youth and have had many articles published in various newpapers and magazines.
