Living here in Northern Virginia so near Washington, D.C. is a nightmare for me. 90% of our land has been paved over or built upon to accommodate the huge population living here. BGII or any game for that matter is a welcome fantasy vacation that I wish could be possible in real life (well, except for the monsters!). I wish more people in this world would realize that to destroy the environment inevitably will destroy all living things, including humans. I think a lot of people just think "Well, I'm not worried, all that will happen years and years from now long after I am gone so it doesn't effect me or my life so I don't care." A piece of a poem I wrote once comes to mind:
Perhaps things would be different if we knew reincarnation as fact
And we all knew that someday we would be coming back
Maybe then our beautiful planet would be protected
By the human bacteria in which it is infected
Well, that was my serious statement for the day, now back to play!
