“If you play at shooting people, it is a murder simulator.” [said] David
Grossman, former West Point psychology professor,

                                “The murder simulator argument ascribes
impossible power to the
                                technology; I wish we had teaching tools
that worked that effectively
                                because more of our children would be
able to read, write, and do
                                arithmetic better.” ? Dr. Henry Jenkins,
director of comparative media
                                studies at MIT
