Erik, would you be open to an interview about the making of DROD at some point for my column on diabloii.net? Nothing immediate, but I do want to run some interviews as installments at some point, and I'm wondering if you'd like to be one of them.

Whaddayasay?

Someone wants to interview *ME*?

Yeah sure. Just let me know when you're ready.

Alright, here's the skinny (I've always wanted to say that... guess typing it'll have to do for now)

I plan to run the interview as a column in a couple months, and as easy as it would be to just email you a bunch of questions and ask you to reply I'd really rather do it as an actual interview if time and opportunity permit. Do you have ICQ MSN or Yahoo! ?

I'm looking to do this in whatever form it takes in about a month, if for no other reason than to give me time to prepare some drivingly journalistic questions with which to shock and amaze my readers.

Yeah, that's no problem. E-mail me and we can set it up.

Well I got nothing to hide! I ain't afraid of no muckraking!

Alright Erik, here's the dirt:

I'm sorry to say I'm interviewing Bill Roper first, so the interview with you won't be showing up for a couple extra months. On the bright side, this means we have plenty of time to play with .

Oh, I added erikh2000 as a yahoo ID to my messenger, should I add by yahoo email as well?

Stupid dumbo Bill Roper! Like he ever did anything important.

Oh well. Give me time to think up profound things to say.

Hmm. Not familiar with Yahoo Messenger. Bug me when you are ready to do the interview and I will figure out what this stuff means.

Yeah, in Yahoo Messenger, while you're chatting you can even knock each other out in that Street Fighter-like motif they've got going. That's pretty wild, I say!

Wouldn't that be bizarre... "Erik, what prompted you to start working on DROD, and DOWN YOU GO TO A THUNDEROUS RIGHT HOOK! OH MAN, DID YOU SEE THAT!?"
