I've met Billy Mitchell. Everyone has.

You pretty much can't go to these events and not meet him. You walk into Twin Galaxies or Arcade Expo and he's standing there in a suit greeting people, selling autographs. That's his JOB. He's a brand. The only advertising for this brand is these stupid records. For Christ's sake, Adam Sandler riffs on him in "Pixels."

The comment you're replying to is about Todd Rogers, not Billy Mitchell.

No, it was equally interesting. HN is much too strict about tangential comments.

Equally relevant too, given the parent comment.
