Subject: Re: The Man (?) Behind the Curtain


Yes people, let us try to remain politically correct here discussing a
computer game which is based entirely around racism and prejudice, heheh
(and violently so at times!). Personally, I can understand where he's
coming from living in the only southern state in the north, Indiana. Then
again I live in Gary, Indiana, which makes up for it, or makes down for it,
something like that.
