I'm Michael Mornard, one of the members of the Lake Geneva Tactical Studies Association in the early 70s when Gary Gygax started Greyhawk. I was one of Gary's original group from 1970 or 71 until late 73. From 73 until 75 I played semi-regularly in Dave Arneson's Blackmoor. I taught Phil (M.A.R) Barker how to play D&D, thus inspiring him to turn Tekumel into Empire of the Petal Throne, and I taught D&D to the person who taught it to Steve Brust.

I've got playtester credits in the brown-box edition and in the original small Greyhawk booklet by Gygax and Kuntz. (I met Rob Kuntz in 7th Grade math class).

PS The bit about Germanicus & Tiberius is very clever. Tiberius never could find his own arse with both hands, damn kids, kaf wheeze {tm}
