RIGHT!!! Oh how you would whine if we actually did invade North Korea. Let's say we had invaded North Korea instead of Iraq, we would be in the exact same boat, except the whining would be to the tune of, "Why invade North Korea! Didn't Bill Clinton say that Iraq was the threat?"
Now, when you say the "techies" should take over the internet... you mean the UN, right? I'm afraid it doesn't quite work that way. While we have a pretty good thing going here with slashdot, we "techies" really aren't that cohesive a group. A corporation of "techies", on the otherhand, is pretty good. Say like, ICANN, for instance. But where should this corporation call home? I don't understand why The U.S. is such an obvious bad choice. My anti-Americanism just isn't up to par.
Don't lynch me all at once... but could this actually be good? If in-game advertising works well, and main-stream products are advertised in games, might this not make games more main-stream? Just a thought.

Maybe it's true.
Hmmmm....Maybe that is an exageration...
There were no Elves at Helms Deep! Where does that no good hack Tolkien get off writting a crappy book about Peter Jackson's movie!
