“No” and “Nein”. 😉 Occasionally, German-savvy people in cyberspace see the “meister” part of my name, and so assume that I’m German, or can at least speak the language. The truth of the matter is that I’m an American mutt, with no other country occupying a place of prominence in my genealogy; And English is my only language. I can almost understand just enough German to be able to clumsily tell people who write to me in German that I don’t understand German. 😉 Back to Top Q: “I read your interview on IGN’s website.” A: Background: IGN FAQs regularly interviews FAQ writers. In July of 2004 they asked if I’d do one. I’d turned them down once before but agreed this time. For what it’s worth, the end result that appeared on their website was actually pieced together from the contents of a few different emails between me and the interviewer. In fact, four questions (the first 2 and last 2) in their version were never asked during the interview, but were tacked on by the interviewer a coup
