Wired's games blog Game|Life alerted me to a great feature on the main Wired site. Called

'Lie detector eyeglasses perfected: Civilization collapses.' - Richard Powers
'Kirby had never eaten toes before.' - Kevin Smith" The games blog makes a point to
highlight the works of game writers Mark Laidlaw and Steve Meretzky. Laidlaw's contribution:
