“Does Tim need a recommendation? Apparently not, but here is one from the early '90s. Tim served as a Cadet in the University of Minnesota Army ROTC Battalion. I recall Tim as a solid leader - never one to trumpet his own praises - who always got the job done. Tim maintained a rigorous academic load (no underwater-basket-weaving courses!), while balancing the challenges of the Army program, the social life of a student, and his outside interests. Of course, it was those "outside interests" that brought him to his career. My only problem is that those interests also took him away from the Army. I cannot comment on Tim's experience since the university days, but it seems that needs no endorsement. (By the way, I hear that Tim's work resulted in a dramatic improvement in gaming since Galaga. While I sincerely doubt that the best-game-ever could be improved on, I'll respect the sales figures.) I can, however, offer the highest compliment: Tim would have made a fine Officer in the U.S. Army.”
