And that to send him a SASE (Self Addressed Stamped Envelope) and he'll send me back a signed Photo. I have to be honest, When I saw the email address of Ralph Baer show on my Trillian 3 yahoo mail notifier 15 minutes after I sent a email to him. I nearly crapped my self in shock and utter amazement. Most of you here should know who Ralph Baer is. But for some crazy reason you don't know who Ralph Baer is. Read the stuff in the following links and you will know why he is cool: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ralph_H._Baer http://www.ralphbaer.com/ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnavox_Odyssey http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnavox_Odyssey² http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simon_(game) Also anyone want to see the email I got back from Baer. And the Email I sent to him?

Subject: Could you do a Autograph for me please

Dear Mr. Baer...

My Name is Nightwheel. I was wondering if I could send your autograph please sir. I'm really into Retro video gaming. And I'm seriously hoping to somehow get a Odyssey and Odyssey2 in the future. I find old consoles amazing and fun. Even if they pre-date my life by few years or more.

But for now, I'm hoping that I can get your autograph since your one the Grandfathers of Video Gaming. And the creator of the Odyssey. But since I don't have a Odyssey or a Odyssey2. I'm hoping I can get your autograph at least. Because without you, gaming wouldn't be what it is. And I thank you for that.

If you can do a Autograph. A Simple signed 8x10 or 5x7 picture. The picture could be of you, you and a Odyssey, a Odyssey only, or a Odyssey manual cover would be fine. Really what ever is easy for you is fine to me.

You can send the autograph to this address:

Nightwheel
(address omitted)

Also if I need to send you something to autograph. Please email me back and let me know. All I try to get a picture or something and send it to sent to you to sign.

Anyways, Thanks for you time and have a nice week Mr. Baer. And I hope to hear back from you.

- Nightwheel

I don't even believe in conflict diamonds. That's just a movie. Think about it. Ain't nobody thought about nothing about no conflict diamonds until the movie came out.

To be technical, those two pioneers are Thomas T. Goldsmith Jr. and Estle Ray Mann. This was back in the 1940's so they called it an "amusement device".

Ralph Baer is a pioneer of home console gaming, which admittedly is the largest portion of it, but the above two were the first to create a video game console at all.
