Your statement that these disparate groups of professionals have all concluded the same thing because of their biases doesn't isn't a compelling argument. We're going to have to agree to disagree on this point. I ain't got a cat in the fight over whether video gaming is "good" for young people or not, so I rely upon studies. You don't. Fair enough. I was merely speculating on why we could never reach agreement on this topic. None so blind ... and all that. bcnu, Mikem It's mourning in America again.
