First, I think she was a visitor, since that's the first time I've seen her.

Second, we'll have to wait till end of spring break to see what's happen. One good thing is that the teacher who supervises that computer lab plays Counterstrike as well :mrgreen: and doesn't mind kids playing in his lab as long as they keep it discrete or don't do it when there's a class in there.

Now, if they do end up making games disallowed in that lab (they've done this before, for different reasons, but now the games are allowed again--to an even greater degree :P ) then perhaps we could make some parents whine at the administration.

The office won't listen to kids. They will pay attention to whining visitors. But whining parents...they'll do anything :mrgreen:
Lucky you... My school doesn't listen to anyone. :(

Have a very nice day.

Most of them now are war-simulators, what with Counterstrike, Navy Seals, etc. It's an obvious positive corellation, and as we all know, positive corellations indicate cause-and-effect.

War games should be banned, because they lead to war.

:roll:
Absolutely right. The logical cause-and-effect relationship between video games and reality is simply undeniable. I've been playing Gran Turismo 2 for only an hour, but already I feel like slamming myself into a brick wall at 140mph. :rolleyes:
Hey, you gotta admit that computer racing games led to an important discovery: the automobile.
