Addendum: Today, my editor returned from LA, where he attended E3 (drool, drool, drool). And I really hope he won't be annoyed at my quoting from his e-mails, but I just have to share the following:
I thought I was a big gaming geek, and then I saw how rabid and packed and ridiculously huge the convention was, and I realized that there are serious gaming geeks out there, and I am not one of them. A fight broke out near me in the X-Box booth and I had to leave.
Wow. Angry, violent gaming geeks. What could possibly be more drad? Well, besides that, I mean.
(Note: This is one of those times when people will think I'm being sarcastic and I'm not.)
Anyway, I think I'm going to spend a little time on Nebari.net. It languishes.

I've seen this before first hand and it was like the Teletubbies meets Fight Club. They were bouncing off of each other's Doritos-and-Root Beer stomachs like there was no tommorrow...
