the dispatch pic looks like him to me, the earlier msg's one does not. I was
really psyched to hear he was teaching something at CCAD here but now i cant
find it... I'd go take it just for kicks, its really very informative to be
around the guy.

I learned quite a lot working for him and Doug Dodd there at Headspin Studios in
the mid-late 90's. I was something of the house programmer/scripter and junior
artist, studying under those two. I just tried contacting Doug through that
highenergygraphics link, hopefully he'll respond... I'd love to catch up. No
leads on Mike tho, that guy has to keep real busy with his family and all. Maybe
someday he'll find some more time to blow our minds with crazy 3D!
