> He had read the first page of my spec and written little notes in the margin!

> Considering that we only got him the spec about 24 hours earlier, he must have read it the night before.

> He was asking questions. I couldn’t stop noticing that he was flipping through the spec and THERE WERE NOTES IN ALL THE MARGINS. ON EVERY PAGE OF THE SPEC. HE HAD READ THE WHOLE GODDAMNED THING AND WRITTEN NOTES IN THE MARGINS.
