My favorite thing about Sandy Peterson is that he is a Mormon. Not that I like that he's religious. But when he was applying to ID Software to make Doom levels, they were concerned about his religious background. Then he said his famous line "I have no problems with the demons in the game. They're just cartoons. And, anyway, they're the bad guys."
But when they said, "Well at least you're not like one of the crazy ones who carries a card!" And Sandy whips out his Mormon card...
Fuckin' A. This guy is great.
