I was just thinking how much I respect and appreciate the Toy and Game industry community. So many creative, brilliant, fun-loving individuals who have always welcomed me, who take the world and power of play so much to heart and who I love to collaborate with. I have worked with so many -  Paul Toyne obviously - he and I were so young when we were making Balderdash and we just knew we had a great idea and we worked day and night to make it happen. The wonderful Harvey Albert at Canada Games was the first and only pitch we had. He said yes and gave us the license right away and helped up make it the number #1 game in Canada and then take it internationally. The inimitable Kevin McNulty, Mike Gasser and the crazy band of salesmen that were the infamous and incredible Games Gang and then Brian Turtle when he joined those guys at Endless Games. Bob Wann, Lisa Weunnemann and all the folks at Playmonster, Tom Quinn, Dan Klitsner, Mary Couzin and the CHITAG/POP team, Tanya Thompson, Dougal Grimes, Rich Mazel, Rob Angel, Richard Gill, Catherine McMillen,  Lisa Guili and the Educational Insights team,  Tony Serebriany and the whole gang at The Op, Bob Kamp the inventor of Blank Slate and so, so many more. Thank you to everyone for all the fun, friendship and inspiration!
