99% are here because we played with computers and video games. video game geeks now rule most the free world and helped design the keyboard you use to be a warrior.
the next generation of geeks will be fucking amazing.

So all the Minecraft players suddenly became a new world domination power, and World Of Warcraft fans, too?
Cutting the shit means being a parent - know where the line is.
I dont mean teen agers but here we have pre-school kids being on a $26/one time fee full time entertainment spree.
I'm thinking about buying a telescope for my kids, get them involved into creating and programming lego robots so they
could understand the connection between virtual and real world.
That is my opinion of course.
