Woman Behind 'Centipede' Recalls Game Icon's Birth

Was excited to read the article for the history on Centipede, then had to filter through a tired rant on gender in order to get to it.

In contract, this interview with PacMan inventor Toru Iwatani in Programmers at Work is absolutely fantastic. http://programmersatwork.wordpress.com/toru-iwatani-1986-pac...

If you want to stop reading "tired rants on gender", perhaps you should try and make it unnecessary for those rants to exist.

Are you saying that caseorganic's desire not to read rants about gender mean that he is sexist? That seems like a baseless (and insulting) assumption...

Caseorganic is a woman, by the way.

I guess that makes me sexist for assuming male heh, what a plot twist! I'll leave my post as is for posterity.
