 Steve Meretzky (1957- ) was born and raised  in Yonkers,  NY, where his
 early  hobbies  included  rooting  for  the  New York  Mets and against
 Richard  Nixon.   A  few historians  of interactive  fiction think that
 Meretzky's first job, packing nuts and bolts for  his father's hardware
 business, was the formative moment of his writing career.   A few other
 people think that there's absolutely no connection.   Most people don't
 think  about  it  at all.  Stationfall  is  Meretzky's  sixth  work  of
 interactive fiction.  Along  with Infocom's  Dave Lebling, Meretzky  is
 the first person admitted to the Science Fiction Writers of America for
 authoring interactive fiction.
