Wow, that just brought back a massive flash from the past. I actually remembered how I felt then I wrote those lines (or something very similar) for the first time. It's a powerful feeling. Thanks for that.

I remember typing something similar (but probably more seditious) on the computers at every store I came across and watching the staff not know how to turn it off.
Probably a jerk move in retrospect, but how can you work in a computer store and not play around with the computers?!
I remember writing this:
10 PRINT "LESSNONYMOUS"
20 GOTO 10
Seeing actual things happen was awesome. Now we have 3D games, seeing your name over and over wont enthrall, so being able to mod and extend a basic Minecraft world would be an incredible gateway.
The way to hook people is exactly like you say. Make a small change, see a huge difference. Suddenly ... YOU HAVE THE POWER!!!
10 PRINT "LESSNONYMOUS";
20 GOTO 10
