Just common decency.. Exactly and if you follow Kay's interviews, you know that it happened so often. Btw.: I tagged him in his interview-thread with a link to here. Let's wait and see. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Psionic Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 I'm not saying you guys can't contact him. I'm just saying that I'm not going to since I have no real reason to do so. If one of you guys do, I'd suggest you tread lightly. That's all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gilsaluki Posted February 2, 2023 Author Share Posted February 2, 2023 Well, at the top of the Pinned section. Never read any of her stuff. Looks like I've got some reading to do. Thanks lady. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mclaneinc Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 I wonder why Kevin swapped it to Jay? I know it's none of my business, but just wondered.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Savetz Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 I have been in contact with David since 2016. He is not super interested in doing an interview, but has indicated that he may agree to one some day. At this point I am not holding my breath, but I remain hopeful. I think it's safe to say that he doesn't want to be bothered by the Atari community. —Kay (the artist formerly known as Kevin) 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are in contact with him, please convey to him that "Typo Attack" holds a place near and dear to my heart. It was the very first program I bought (with my brand new 130 XE) and it was responsible for teaching me how to type. Today when people comment "wow, you type fast", I tell them I have "Typo Attack on my 130 XE" to thank for that (and 99 percent of people dont know what the hell IM talking about LOL). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gilsaluki Posted February 2, 2023 Author Share Posted February 2, 2023 I agree Flyindrew. Typo Attack was/is great! I know other programs came along that copied the theme, but David's idea was original and appealed to both educational and gamer crowds. Thank him for me as well. Hopefully, he does not have negative memories from those years. As this thread kicked off, some people want absolutely NOTHING to do with their past or Atari. It means nothing to them now. Which, again, amazes me at some level. But, I respect his wishes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_The Doctor__ Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 I am just happy Kevin has and ongoing dialog with him, and that he is alive and kicking. Good news. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
