This is from today's Times


Game over

A computer game based on defending the World Trade Centre from kamikaze pilots has been withdrawn. People playing WTC Defender, which had been available to download over the Internet, had to shoot down planes heading for the twin towers. If an aircraft got through, the buildings blew up.

Pardon me for an expletive, but - D**N THEM!!! I know that there's no way to know for SURE where people get their ideas for violence, but this is the THIRD thing I have heard of that related to the destruction of the WTC! First, Tom Clancy's book. Second, what was it?, Die Hard 2? Now THIS! I hope they finally see that these things do/can influence people.

Oh hell yeah, It's called Executive Order. It is a great read along with his most recent, The Bear and the Dragon. Jack Ryan kicks some a$$!
