Misc. Author Info       : I know this isn't going to be the best map-set on the planet, but after being out of the mapping scene
			  for more than 20 years. I really wanted to give my old hobby another shot! The world of Doom maps has
			  changed considerably since my last foray into the world of mapping, yet my style appears to have mostly
			  remained the same. I'm sure my old wads are long-gone by now so it's near impossible to show my previous work.
