I had an interview with Aaron Cohen who introduced me to John, who was the Executive Producer of Nox. While giving me a demonstration of the 'upcoming' game (at the time), I also was able to play the game for the first time. I later on saw him at the Nox Preview Party in San Francisco, then when I attended the Westwood tour in Nevada, where he flew out to visit with the few people who came.  From then on out John Hight has been a delightful and humorous guy to talk to. I normally bumped into him at game conventions through out the last few years. Then I moved to Irvine, California to work in-house with Gamespy Industries (after Mplayer was bought by them). I saw him a few times while I lived there since the Westwood Studios Branch was a few blocks away.
