I just put up a new section on my web site.  It's government agencies. 
This time it involves Paul Allen, not Bill Gates. I think these boys better 
figure out what is going on. 

I did a CD-ROM Called GatesKeeper. There were simplier Multimedia
development tools around. I knew Asymetrix problem stemed from bugs in 
Windows and I talked my boss into using ToolBook. 

We did templets for using Video For Windows that allowed a person to
simply click on an object with the right mouse button and change either
the AVI clip or the text. Even a sales rep can create a MultiMedia
presentation doing this. My own 10 year old son tested it. I had the
applications written very simply to avoid problems I knew about in
Windows. After editing the file, you had to save it to your hardrive as a
new ToolBook files.

Even though I did this CD-ROM and worked with Asymetrix own people helping
implement AVI in their own products I could't get an interview for a job
there after I was layed off at Firstlight.  I decided to put my story
about my dealings with Asymetrix and Paul Allen up on my WEB. As usual I
scanned government document and posted them also.  It brings up some very
serious question about people working for government agencies.
