Sadly, someone will probably blindly reference this study in some argument against video games. It’s too bad we can’t force them to publish your article and tack it to the back of every copy of that study they distribute.

Seattle of all places…I recall that it was a high risk city for suicide, let alone depression. I lived in that area for a spell. Summers could be nice but most times the weather kept you indoors. Cold and wet days are perfect for gaming!

I was going to write something else, but I am just too depressed. I’m gonna scarf down a few menu meals and then play some Warhawk.

Thank you for writing this. My favorite quote is

“The results of this study don’t quite showcase a development in social examination, but are a big “duh” with a side of “yeah, so?”

Amen!
