The greatest words I ever heard: "none of which can be played online."

That was the first thing I thought of too. Thanks for posting it!

I hate the idea of quotas, but dang it, there needs to be more diversity in pop culture, and especially in geek culture. On that note, I'm looking forward to this:

If he added "II" afterwards, he might have technically been right.

As a teacher, here is the issue I see: most class discussions are lead by women, most school elections are dominated by women, and yet after high school - and this is just from my own perception - there seems to be a lot fewer women in positions of power.
