What's ironic about his username? His name's Walter Bright.

Ironic in the context of a discussion of vices and addiction, though now understandable (apologies for my lack of knowledge of 70s games & compiler names!)

Speaking of destructive social manipulation, your game destroyed my grade in LISP (or was it C++?) when I discovered Empire on a (Sun?) workstation in the computer lab.

But you probably already know all that from on the extensive profile you built on me.

Thank you. :)
