    I think BosonMichael made a correlation between women in IT and women gamers (yes, I'm taking it out of context) in another thread, so when I saw this story on CNN.com, I figured it would find an audience here.

    Personally, I find gaming to be a cosmic waste of my precious time, but I can't really make fun of the activity because so many people who are intelligent and talented are also gamers (and it's not like my forms of entertainment are all that enlightened...I watched Mission Impossible II (2000) last night and then read part of a Batman graphic novel in bed before going to sleep).

    Anyway, here's a quote for your amusement and I hope you find the story interesting.
