    Quoted from pinball_keefer:

    These chances don't come along very often, so take advantage of the opportunity and give it a shot!

    For all of the linked list talk, I don't think people are truly appreciating what an understatement this is. A lot of people talk about what THEY would do if THEY were making pinball machines, but then the jobs always get filled by people already or formerly in the industry so they never get a chance. Here's your chance.

    When some yahoo named Ted Estes emailed me a reply to an rgp post a million years ago and said I should interview at Williams/Bally I didn't hesitate. Well, I did hesitate, because I lived in rural Virginia and had no desire to double my cost of living by moving to the Chicago area. But then I realized I'd regret it if I didn't at least go investigate. The rest is history. (I came to Williams and then pinball shut down, so you can blame me for that bit of history!) But still, it's been quite the wild ride, and still going.
