Quite possibly. Then again, the name isn't terribly unique, then again, ubar talent from MIT and the like can get a job in the game industry.

According to the HL storyline, our crowbar-wielding protagonist went to M.I.T.

Wait 2 months, phone him up at the new number, and say the following-

Well well well... isn't this just like.... old times...

Alternatively, get a job with him. Wear a white wig, chase him down corridors telling him that they're waiting for him... in the tesssssssst chammmmberrrrrr

Post by: [Freemantle] on December 03, 2004, 06:11:21 PM: "Wake up... Mr. Freeman... wake up.... not to... imply... your sleeping... on-the job.."

For all the years we waited for HL2, the G-Man can't speak a regular sentence and not sound like a robot...

OMG! He's a ROBOT!

Post by: Dark on December 04, 2004, 06:15:33 PM: wow but as interesting as this is i personally wouldn't do anything to him anyway because more than likely he has heard it all and is possibly screening his phone calls to avoid such calls

Isn't that going a little "overboard"

Post by: Necrosis on December 07, 2004, 03:17:07 PM: Overboard is tearing the extra legs off a crab and putting it in his locker, complete with motion detecting audio player to go "SCREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!" when the door opens.

According to the Raising the Bar book, Gordon was named after Freeman Dyson. The Gordon part was just a good scientist name I suppose. ;)
