Hullo there no im not a prophet i problay didnt even spell it rightbut ive got an interesting quote that needs considering.
"The computer programmer. . . is a creator of universes for which he alone is the lawgiver . . . no playright, no stage director, no emperor, however powerful has ever exersized such absolute authority yo arange a stage or feild of battle and to command such unswaeringly duitful actors or troops."
Joseph Weizendaum
Computer Power and Human Reason
No thats not me just giving credit to the fella who wrote that. think about that he just called computers programers GODS!! That means Sid Meir, Trevor Chan, Chis Metzen and many others are Gods on Earth at least with a computers help. Would that make the producers who rush the gamn out early Demons the Beta testers who save the games from bugs Saviours the many Game maginze editors Prohets their magizines Bibles The softwarestores churches The people who buy the games worshipers of these Gods?? ive coverd just about everbody in the indudustry. Are all the gods good certinaly not. gut then no relgions are perfect either. Well i think i said enough to star a religious cult. maybe i sholud look into buying some rat posin? What do the amazing inteligent people that cruise the Alpha Fourma think? did i leave anyone out???
