will wright is cool

NYTimes.com has a fun feature on Will Wright, co-founder of Maxis and brain behind SimCity, Spore and all the Sims franchises (full article link below). I'm a big fan of pretty much everything he does so I enjoyed this article and look forward to any future projects he's working on.
Fantasy career: It would involve large construction equipment or being a helicopter pilot.

Favorite game he didn’t design: It’s a call between Civilization and Grand Theft Auto. One makes you think of history in a different way. The other is a playground where you can wreak havoc and don’t have to clean up afterward.

Unique gift giver: I buy these pins that were designed to help you keep track of your radiation exposure. They kept them in bomb shelters during the cold war. They make great gifts.
