Douglas Toth is a grouchy old game geek with an Associate Degree in electronics, a tolerant wife and a penchant for drifting off into his imagination. He can be roused back to the real world by the sound of beer bottles opening, the smell of fresh coffee, the rolling of dice or a thump to the head.

His favorite games are seeing resurgence; Talisman, Starfleet Battles (as Federation Commander) Titan and Tunnels and Trolls (I give up on D&D!). Reading Sci-Fi (Blish, Asimov and others) Fantasy (E.R.Burroughs, Lieber, Howard and, again, others) fills a rainy afternoon alone. Movies of the same ilk are also a constant waste of his time. He views computer games as a weak fill in for real gaming with real people.

Mr. Toth also enjoys the outdoors on warm days where he can camp and participate in live action combat games like Dagorhir (look it up). He dwells in the middling part of Indiana, USA; which is actually a pretty nice place.

Special thanks to Jon New for his effort in putting this where everyone can read it.
