Go get 'em, Killer!
My longtime friend, game-industry colleague (and one-time boss), John Nephew is getting involved in politics in his home of Maplewood, Minnesota. Here he takes the Maplewood City Council to task for failing to live up to their promises to the community:
It is precisely this incisiveness, this shrewd understanding of fiscal responsibilities and unflinching willingness to go to the guts of a problem that has made John such a formidable businessman. He would be an excellent asset to any board of directors, advisory committee, or council. I tried to enlist him to help clean up some of GAMA's glaring deficits when I was on the GAMA board and he wisely demurred in favor of getting more involved in local politics. We can see that impulse coming to fruition now.
Go get 'em, John!
