Scientists will tell you why something works.
Engineers will tell you how to make it work.
Designers will give you a working, 1/10 scale model.
Test Pilots will tell you everything that's wrong with the previous three.

... at which point the customers will complain that it's overpriced and overcomplicated, and why did we buy this, anyway?

We have a good one at our work:
The scientist says I need more money to get results.
The engineer says I need more money to design what he needs to get the results.
The technician says I need more money to build was has been designed.
The support staffer says I don't get paid enough money for this.

No, the only comment that G made was that Chell's not a scientist, or even a full time employee at Aperture Science. Personally, I think she's someone with bad luck at signing up for clinical trials

I've alway thought that Chell was family member of a Aperture labs staffer and they tried to use the Aperture facilities like a Vault. GlaDOS in a fit of rampancy, has been killing them off, one by one. Chell's the only one left, at this location.

Quote:Osaka by night is... well, it's like Osaka by day, really, except with more neon, but somehow it seems like everything's turned up to 11. The food smells seem stronger, the noises louder. Everything's amped. Or maybe that was just because I spent the entire time in a constant fight-or-flight polling loop.
This, this right here, is why I am a devotee of Eyrie Productions works.

Well, it's nice to see that Gryphon is following in Marvel's footsteps by putting Wolverine in every damned story. Aside from that, it's pretty entertaining.

I believe Gryphon once said that he intends the series to have an appearance of somebody from every official Street Fighter crossover, or something like that. Marvel vs. Capcom exists, so a Marvel character appears.
Although having it be Wolverine and not anybody else could be an example of that...

.....I'm not the only one here that wants to see some of the DOA cast show up in Warrior's Legacy, if only because that series has so little plot, Gryph has carte-blanche to write up their personalities from near-scratch? :lol:

Heh, he's not yet put Wolverine into everything only into the two where he fit's best. Start worrying when you see G putting Wolverine & Deadpool into everything. And ya the DOA cast so fit into WL adds in some proper 'current day' ninjas, 'cause you do know that in adding DOA to the mix means Gryph's gained a Spartan, a one Nicole-458. Slipspace accident indeed.
