   Now why do you have to be so suspicious of everything? You're
seriously starting to sound like a paranoia freak.

   Just in case you haven't bothered playing games on the GS in
quite some time or keeping up on programmers that you seem so intent
on flaming, Burger Bill is the name Bill Heinemann goes by. Nothing
of a "coverup" about it at all. [Eric Shepherd goes by 'sheppy'
a lot].

   Credits for Burger Bill include (among others I'm probably
forgetting) Bards Tale for //e & GS, Battle Chess, Out of This World,
Rescue Rover, and many console games. He's rumored to have done some
SimCity variant for the GS, but licensing agreements (we programmers
do have to abide by the laws, even as you seem to want to blow your
nose all over them) prevented that without big bucks.
