OK, here is a new thread about LaRouche and his followers. The "LaRouchites vs. video games" circus continues with [URL=http://www.larouchepac.com/news/2007/10/30/federal-reserve-promotes-video-games.html]this article[/URL], found on LaRouche Political Action Committee's website, as per usual :

[QUOTE=LaRouchePAC][B]Federal Reserve Promotes Video Games[/B]

October 30, 2007 (LPAC)--If you're wondering why Federal Reserve Chairman Bernanke is acting like the "Sorcerer's Apprentice," issuing waves of money to solve the banking crisis, he probably went mad playing fantasy video games like "Second Life." Now he wants to be certain that young adults join the him in the insane asylum. The Federal Reserve of Boston issued this press release yesterday:

"BOSTON, Mass. - October 29, 2007 - The Federal Reserve Bank of Boston's Economic Adventure Gallery is hosting an engaging, interactive exhibit on the history of video games this fall. "Video Games Evolve: A Brief History from Spacewar! to MMORPG's" examines the video-game industry's roots, which are firmly planted in New England. The exhibit, which is free, runs though January... In addition to examining the past, the exhibit also offers an enticing look at modern-day games, including Star Wars Galaxies, the Immune Attack educational game, the virtual reality of Second Life, and massive, multi-player online role-playing games (MMORPGs) like World of Warcraft...

"The exhibit is part of the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston's Economic Adventure, an interactive educational designed to teach middle- and high-school students how New England's improved living standards are reliant upon innovation, which leads to advances in productivity."

The release further notes: "The gaming revolution began across the Charles River at MIT, where the first non-commercial interactive video game, Spacewar!, was born in 1962."[/QUOTE]

So, the "video-game industry's roots, which are firmly planted in New England" ? Well, now I better understand the connection with the British Empire ! :D
