While he wasn't related to video games, I think he needs to be mentioned here as he was rather interesting figure and the one everyone could learn a thing or two from.

I believe that the gaming industry needs someone like Valenti on their side, who would promote and lobby for gaming, make a bridge of communication between gamers and politicians, and yet do everything in their effort to inform both politicians and parents about importance of game ratings - both gamers and parents could appreciate the presence of such person.

He was a main part of the MPAA I wonder if he was on the side of the newer changes that are going on the MPAA is lessing some of their "anti internet" stuff.
