Believe it or not, there was actually a rumor going around that there was no 'Kevin Siembieda', that Maryann was the real author of Rifts, HU, Robotech, etc. the rumor was that she talked Steve Jackson into posing as the fictional 'KS' to help her break into the 'male dominated' world of RPG design.
Truth is stranger then fiction because fiction has to make sense...

Rifts: It's not just for GURPS anymore.
Rifts: Building Muscle Mass on Gaming Geeks since 2000! (after carting all those books to each game)
Rifts: What book were we working on again?
Rifts: Editing? We don't need no stinking Editing!
Rifts: The weakest deities this side of the Apocalypse
Rifts: The game where everybody knows YOUR name
Rifts: Archie III is your friend, and if you don't believe me, you're a commie mutant traitor
Rifts: Post-Apocalyptic to Super Societies in three books or your money back!
Rifts: Making Tolkeen look worse at war than the French!
Rifts: With Mexican Vampires bringing new meaning to the words "Illegal Alien"
Rifts: Because 50 foot tall alien Mega-Damage beings weren't enough
Rifts: We Came, We Saw, We Wrote the Books
Rifts: One Nation, under...no, wait, make that Two Nations...no, wait, make that Four Nations...no, wait, make that Eight Nations...no, wait...
Rifts: For when Darth Vader makes the Dark Side look nice
Rifts: In 101 P.A. a crack commando unit was sent to prison by the Coalition for a crime they didn't commit. These men promptly escaped from a maximum security stockade to the Chi-Town underground. Today, still wanted by the Coalition, they survive as soldiers of fortune. If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire the A-Team.
Rifts: Just remember what ol' Jack Burton does when the earth quakes, the poison arrows fall from the sky, and the pillars of Heaven shake. Yeah, Jack Burton just looks that big old storm right in the eye and says, "Give me your best shot. I can take it."
Oops, almost forgot...
Rifts: ...and I would have gotten away with it too, if it weren't for those meddling Rules Lawyers

16 Blessed art Thou above all others, O COALITION STATES, beloved of Kevin;
17 For Thou art allowed to do Evil without Limit, nor do thy Enemies retaliate.
18 Thy Military be run by Fools and Dotards.
19 Yet thy Nation suffers not. Praise be unto Him that protects thee from all harm!!
