The title of this file was “CGDCTALK” but I don’t remember ever giving a talk anywhere until years later, after the success of HL2.

I do believe it because the file’s creation date is indeed November 9, 1998, and I am not l33t enough to know how to fake that sort of thing. PREFACE: Another file from the same disk with the Nihilanth sketches, this one, if it is to believed, written the day after we shipped Half-Life.
