[games_access] GDC 2006 + www.robertflorio.com + Way of the Rodent and Plan B Magzine article

[hinn at uiuc.edu]

Thanks so much for pointing me to the forum posting -- 
great, great video. I just asked him if he'd mind letting us 
use it for our GDC presentations. He's trying to win one of 
the student scholarships for GDC so I hope that he gets one 
and will be able to join us. He seems like a dynamic game 
dev-in-training and will be great to have at meetings (yes, 
I invited him). :) Welcome Robert!
