    Seriously, who can imagine Dial on Demand Routing of a Direct-to-Disk recording of a game of Dance Dance Revolution running on a machine with Double Data Rate RAM inside the Deutsche Demokratische Republik undergoing Disarmament, Demobilization and Reintegration?

    Maybe I'm just old-fashioned, but why not just toss the kids outside and station a college near-drop-out to shout "run, fat-ass!" at them every few minutes. That certainly sounds cheaper.
