Hello World!

I feel vindicated. Yesterday I came across this article at BBC Online.

Apparently computer games don't really rot your brain as many people seem to advocate, but can actually stimulate learning.

I can testify to this. I learned more from playing Theme Park on my Amiga about running a business venture than I did from 2 years of a GCSE Business Studies course. The only thing that taught me that I remember today is the correct spelling of buisiness. And that took the majority of the 2 years.

  While exploring an uncharted planet, Enterprise crew members encounter a group of aliens who are hunting down indigenous creatures for recreation. During their exploration, Archer is mesmerized by visions of a woman desperately attempting to communicate with him. The woman's ethereal distress signal informs Archer that she and others like her are actually the prey of the alien hunters. Heeding her call, Archer levels the playing field against the alien hunters.
