what a depressing article (the one Lance referred to that would be 30 printed pages). I already disagree with the vast majority of modern psycology, sociology being a subset of that field, becasue every single professional psycologist I know - including my own aunt - eventually develops a tragic fault.
Their ability to solve other people's problems is a benefit to society, but their own problems, often interpersonal and family related, are solved with very unhealthy methods for certain disorders that they fail to recognize in themselves. Their ability to help others casts a shadow over their self destructive behaviour, as the article above mentions, and psycologists, with such a knowledge of what the psyche is capabale of, are some of the sickest people out there.

If most of the very talented scripters here also have an active interest in psycology, then it's no wonder that it is like sqeezing water from a rock to get a straight answer to a question so very often around here. I know that I am an average programmer at best. Others in the professional field of programming know more than I do. But for the sake of what is supposed to be a fun video game, let's bring fun's cousin, sharing, back into the graal picture as it was half a decade ago, and so many people learned how to make npcs from ace's and bruge's and other's examples, which were freely shared.
