Jess Ragan Posted September 19, 2001 Share Posted September 19, 2001 No, it's no joke. I think he's Jessica Kitchen now. He should start a rock band filled with transsexual game programmers... he could call it "The Kitchenettes". JR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted September 19, 2001 Share Posted September 19, 2001 Yeah I heard the same thing about one of the Kitchen brothers (I don't remember which one). First Jay Fenton and now Steve, who's going to be the next programmer to get a bob job?

Scott Stilphen Posted September 20, 2001 Share Posted September 20, 2001 There was Dan/Dani Bunten (who passed away a few years ago)... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Cafeman Posted September 20, 2001 Share Posted September 20, 2001 That's odd that several 80's game designers all had 'the change'. Who is fenton? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted September 20, 2001 Share Posted September 20, 2001 Jay/Jamie Fenton designed Gorf, the unreleased Ms. Gorf, and Bally Astrocade Basic. Who was Dan/Dani Bunten? Tempest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digitalpress Posted September 20, 2001 Share Posted September 20, 2001 Dan Bunten is the designer responsible for creating the classic M.U.L.E. Also note that Jamie Fenton is also the creator of Macromedia Director, which I'm sure many of you use today. From Astrocade to web design, she's never rested on her laurels.

Klove Posted September 20, 2001 Author Share Posted September 20, 2001 All, You may or may not of heard the rumor that Matt Hubbard has passed away, but here's proof that HE IS in-fact ALIVE and well. --------------------------------------------Ken Love wrote: > Matt, were you aware that there's a rumor out there in the > community that you've passed-away. "I'm not kidding either." > It was really depressing to hear that. Well, I'm sure this is the definition of "morbidly curious", but did anyone mention _how_ I died? Shot by a jealous husband? Choked on a ham sandwich? Heart attack? AIDS? Car accident? Really, if you heard how, I'd love to know. I think it's hilarious. Best regards, The late MattH -------------------------------------------- I now need to find Steve Kitchen and Larry Miller. Anyone out there hear or know anything about them? Take it easy!

+Cafeman Posted September 20, 2001 Share Posted September 20, 2001 Well, that's good to hear. I didn't think he was dead, myself. Reading the topic, I thought for a moment he was in NYC this past week and missing or something, then found, but it seems he's been presumed dead a while, eh?

mos6507 Posted September 20, 2001 Share Posted September 20, 2001 I have it on good authority that Steve Kitchen (ala Space Shuttle) has had a sex change operation and therefore goes by another name. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+-^CrossBow^- Posted September 20, 2001 Share Posted September 20, 2001 LOL!!! Priceless.... Actually I bet the stress levels of programming the 6502 for "Stellas" is what really sent them over that edge...

Tempest Posted September 20, 2001 Share Posted September 20, 2001 Ya know I was going to have Jay/Jamie Fenton sign my Astrocade Basic Manual at the CGE (I never got around to it), but one of my biggest quandries was how was she going to sign it? Should she sign it Jay Fenton because that's who wrote it, or Jamie Fenton because that's who she is now. I was just going to split the difference and have it signed J. Fenton. Anyway I digress... This conversation definetly rates a 9.5 on my "Eeewww" meter. Let's hope Cypher doesn't drive me to become Tempette. Tempest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel D. Park Posted September 20, 2001 Share Posted September 20, 2001 You guys are freaking me out. That whole Jay or Jamie thing getting your cart signed is just wrong. On the other hand though, having the cart signed Jamie would sure make the cart an interesting conversation piece.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jahfish Posted September 21, 2001 Share Posted September 21, 2001 thanx for the link, rhindeline the rose. since the jah from 'jah fish' come from patois, the slang they speak in jamaica and means god, looks like i am trapped in another controversial religious discussion will i be maria fish or eva fish? or if is god both sexes, can i keep my name and could be incognito programmer? in this case, was god a programmer before he created the earth? again in this case, are the 5 percenters believing they are all programmers and the rest of the world will die? ... i have been programming on the compumate keyboard. just simple stuff i remembered ('print' and 'goto' kinda stuff). am i endangered now?

+-^CrossBow^- Posted September 21, 2001 Share Posted September 21, 2001 Okay...now it gets more interesting... Now that we know more or less where Steve Kitchen has gotten to...or become. The question is? What is the likelihood that She has any of her old code stored somewhere from the 2600/7800 days to provide to Ken Love? Also...if she did change her name from Steve Kitchens to Jessica Kitchens...then dare we even begin to think of how she is now called Jessica Stevens? Or perhaps...another name change has occured?! Hopefully... Ken Love: Good luck contacting her but I find it unlikely that any of the old code she was working on when she was a he will still be left either. I think most of those whom undergo this major change do so with the intent of eliminating the old completely in order to remove ties to it. We can only see...

Klove Posted September 21, 2001 Author Share Posted September 21, 2001 Rhindle or All, Has anyone actually contacted Jessica to see if in-fact this is Steve? Also... "What makes everyone so sure this is him / her?" I just put a call in to her but no-one at the office was available. Hope to hear from you soon!

Tempest Posted September 21, 2001 Share Posted September 21, 2001 quoteHas anyone actually contacted Jessica to see if in-fact this is Steve I'm not 100% sure, but this paragraph sure makes a strong statement to the fact: quoteFrom 1988 to 1989, Ms. Stevens was Chair of the Board of Directors and Vice President of Engineering/Manufacturing at Absolute Entertainment, Inc. and Imagineering, Inc., both of New Jersey. From 1982 to 1988, Ms. Stevens was President, Chief Executive Officer, and a director of Woodside Design Associates, Inc., Redwood City, California, a high technology think tank. Ms. Stevens has worked as a consultant to numerous high technology companies including Apple Computer, Inc., Activision, Inc., AT&T, GEC Marconi, McDonnell Douglas and Parker Brothers. If it's not, it's still someone that would be interesting to talk to. Tempest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
berzerk Posted September 22, 2001 Share Posted September 22, 2001 I think we need a current picture of this person now and one of the old pics from the old days side by side to compare.

berzerk Posted September 22, 2001 Share Posted September 22, 2001 quote from stevens: quoteAs someone who has been open and honest about being a lesbian for my entire adult life, and knowing the importance of coming out as one of the best ways to dispel myths and end discrimination, I greatly value this opportunity to give something back to my community," said Stevens. "I feel very fortunate that, after spending the past several years building my business, I am now in a position to help educate America about the basic fairness of our movement's goals."
