You know, that's something I've been wondering for about a month or so too. Anyone care to enlighten me/us?

Harry and Dale (HT) have been friends for years. When Dale left the WB crew and decided to start programming AH, Harry took it upon himself to insure that Dale got away from the keyboard occassionally. Bottomline, without Harry's efforts, Dale would be a LOT crazier than he is :D.

BTW, don't let anyone kid you...they are both Putz's :D.

If I remember correctly Sharkbait also did the Beta terrain and until recently was still credited for the beta terrain.  I only ever saw him online a few times, always in a M16 parked off an enemy runway! :)

Ogre did the original beta terrain, IIRC.

 Harry (SB) , like Dale (HT), was...nee IS an "old" Air Warrior...
 equally deadly in a P-38J or A-26B.
 
 He's also a good guy to have lunch with.

 He is alas, as NoBaddy points out, a putz, but
 then where would we be without them! :)

Nexx...

SB flys occassionally. Last I heard, he was still pretty heavy into EverCamp. Additionally, he recently aquired a life :D.

Naw Nogoody errr Baddy, dropped all my subscriptions to EQ last year. Turned in my tights for good.

I've done no terrain work and NB summed up most of why I'm in the credits.

You'll see me flying a bit as a Knight lately, just look for SB. It should show up on most peoples kill list. Look up my stats if you want to feel good about your flying .

I just hope SB sticks with the M-16, and stays out of the P-38.  At least, until we rotate back to Nits.
