As you look as his art, think of Dangling Participle and the Sense Gnomes.

Just off that splash page of his, I can't help but wonder if he did some of the character designs of Space Quest also. :)

Is that kind of observation really something you should be proud of?

LOL! Anytime I have any shining moment of wisdom, I am proud.

For they are few and very, very, very far between.
