The one thing to take away from that story is that if you're a female gamer, you can be about a 5 or a 6 and still hook up with rich game developers. Assuming you can find any, that is.
Yeah I remember that. That and being told John Romero was going to kick my ass or something in ad's for Daiktana (don't think I spelled that right, but does it matter?). Then he vanished off the map.

Really, what did he bring to the id table? Seems like Carmack has done fine without him.
