Sonic- A fact that most of you will want to know

I know the person who originally designed Sonic.  He was an art teacher at my school a couple years back.  He's pretty rich considering Sega bought the idea from him, I don't think my school even payed him since he didn't want it.

So I guess the topic is:
A) Sonic
B) get rich quick schemes (lol, invent a character that Sega wants and you're good)
C) Interesting people you know.

Take your pick.

So either Yuji Naka, Naoto Óshima or Hirokazu Yasuhara went to your school? Whoa...


I might return for a little while.

No...the original designer of Sonic the character, not the game.  I believe his name was Jim Stangi.  According to my sisters, he helped with the concept art.

Uh, Cynthis Lord came to our school once.

And my brother's teacher said Bill Nye's a jerk. (She met him)

Re: Sonic- A fact that most of you will want to know

I once played poker with some orphaned brothers from Brooklyn.

Interesting kids, they were. (Both were pretty bad at poker)

All she did was ask for an autograph, and Bill snapped his fingers and his bodyguards blocked him.

Well, I have met, erm, no-one. Never get the chance. I mean, coolstuff doesn't even know what city I live in and he lives a half an hour drive away from me. That's how small my city is.

Re: Sonic- A fact that most of you will want to know

Get rich quick scheme:
-Spend fifteen years studying bacterial biology.
-Bombard E. Coli bacteria with radio waves until it mutates into a superlethal strain.
-With extra care, develop antibiotic that fully destroys the bacteria.
-Release super-strain upon global population. (Don't tell people it was you)
-Wait four months.
-Release pricey antibiotic upon global market.
-???
-Profit/Nobel Science Prize.

Include leap years! There's 3 in 15 years, so add another 3 days.
5475 + 3 = 5478 days.

c) My neighbor was a Ranger and survived the Battle of Mogadishu (see Black Hawk Down). And my uncle built a model of an aircraft carrier (USS San Jacinto) for former president George H W Bush (Sr.).
