I didn't grab a screen shot, but when my Bridge watch officer is facing away from me, there are very faint signatures written on his back. I'm guessing that Dan's and Mihai's are there.

Hi!

"Gordon Freeman" was a character in the video game Unreal; "Gordon L Freeman" is a computer scientist in the Software Engineering Research Group at Vanderbilt University.

He writes articles like, "The task-dependent nature of the maintenance of object-oriented programs." See here, for example.

Gordon Freeman is THE starring character/super-scientist/one man wrecking crew/never-speaking glasses model of Halflife and Halflife2 fame.....

I come from the land of Half - Life series and mods. How dare you speak of Gordon Freeman in such a maner. I have no respect for the fool.
