  1. Thank you for the kind words. I’m doing ok health wise for now. The treatment I’m on is called Yervoy and has quite an array of side effects. Though I’ve been in the hospital for some fevers and have had to slow down a little, I remain hopeful that the treatment will extend my life a little longer. ACAM is going to bring some games from my donated collection to Pax-East so lots of people will get to enjoy them when they come visit us in April. For those that are going to CAX I’ll be there to say hello both days and talk games.

  2. I look forward to the show every month. Thank you for taking time to create it.
    Scott, I hope you can enjoy your trip to CAX. If it ever comes time for me to deal with an illness, I hope to be as brave as you seem to be.
