I loved this line:
However lousy it is to sit in your basement and pretend to be an elf, I can tell you from personal experience it's worse to sit in your basement and try to figure if Ginger or Mary Ann is cuter

Very, very good article. I was going to say "Don't worry, MMOs will take care of it" but he included that.

A wonderful example of the difference between consuming and participating/sharing/etc is here:

This is one of the most uplifting threads this wuff has read. And it is so in sync witht the conclusion of your artical, where the child is asking "where's the mouse?".

There are a lot of pages to read there, so wuff will toss this in as an item of interest: "Sister Flame" named the little robots encountered early in the game "clickey clacks" because of the sounds they made. In direct tribute to her, the developers changed a mission in the game to "take on Clik Clak" and his guards. Here's a pic of the critter in question. http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a298/Moloch01/Avatar/clickeyclak2.jpg
Let's see Gilligan's Island top THAT!
