Roger McGowan is a technological savant. His brilliant but unorthodox programming techniques have made him the toast of Drake City's scientific community, and he has worked for such notable companies as Nelson Psychodigital and Dark-Hawke Industries. Which may be why his complete insanity hasn't been noticed yet. Roger McGowan loves computers. To an unhealthy degree. What's more, he's convinced himself that his digital creations love him back. This is even more unhealthy, given his knack for robotics and artificial intelligence.
