Where on earth is this comment coming from Koshelkin? Why are you assuming she wants to learn programming just because she has video game writing books? You realize that writing and programming are different professions entirely, right? And not everybody in gaming uses C++ anymore, C# is just as popular. What about…

it’s pretty cool that video games now have their own version of the blair witch project

Nah, man. “You” dropped the ball this year. Work on it for next year! Finish more of the backlog, and then maybe.

Ayn Rand? Thank goodness, I thought you were dead.
