GI Joe: Professor Rottclaw addendum

Here's the filecard mentioned in today's review:

PROFESSOR ROTTCLAW
Killgore, Crispin

PRIMARY SPECIALTY: Paleontology: Genetic Engineering
SECONDARY SPECIALTY: Paleo-Viper Pack Leader
BIRTHPLACE: Johannesburg, South Africa

Crispin Killgore grew up a child of privilege, his family's vast wealth granting him every luxury imaginable, but no money could provide this young boy's greatest wish - a real-life dinosaur of his very own. His obsession with all things prehistoric drove him to studies combining cutting edge genetic research with paleontology. As his methods began pushing ethical boundaries he was expelled for unscrupulous conduct and rumored looting of dig sites. Ostracized from any reputable university, he sought out Cobra and Dr. Mindbender as the only organization with the adequate facilities and capital to realize his experiments - reviving the Cobra Deinonychus from extinction. Professor Rottclaw now serves as pack leader of Cobra's Paleo-Viper forces pairing the troopers with his creations which they attempt to wrangle and direct against the enemies of Cobra with mixed results.

*quot;Professor Rottclaw has no real allegiance to or belief in the ideals of Cobra. He'd serve anyone who helps him play with his 'toys.'*quot;

The "longest possible birthplace" thing is just a leftover bit of filler text from when the graphic designer was setting up the template; Hasbro showed off a filecard for the Ramp Rats at the same time, and it had both that and "longest possible specialty."
