Here's the thing:
I bought HL1 when it first came out, in the orange box with the orange manual with the letter on the very first page...
This is the letter, I think it was either written by a Dr Kleiner reccommending you for work at Black Mesa, to the Administrator, or a letter from the Administrator welcoming you to work....
Anyway - in your first meeting with the so-called G-Man (simply the name Valve gave to the .mdl file.....a bit of a joke like barney.mdl), where you see him talking to a scientist through a pane of glass, how do we know this is not meant to be the administrator?
The scientists around the facility only talk about the Administrator wanting them to push the equipment, and get a good test result, not some Government Agency guy walking around, that no one seems to know anything about, yet still are seen talking to him anyway!
I think Valve originally intended the Briefcase guy to be the Administrator, but when they saw the almost mythical status the community imbued him with , they decided to seperate the 2 characters....
