    "Every year, before I teach 1984 to my seniors, I run a simulation. Under the guise of 'the common good,' I turn my classroom into a totalitarian regime. I've done this experiment numerous times, albeit not consecutively, and every year I have similar results. This year, however, the results were different. This year, a handful of students did fall in line as always. The majority of students, however, rebelled."

    The Odyssey 2 is a super weird thing. A third of its games were made by one person, Ed Averett.

    One of those games, "Computer Intro," was just a hex editor with a button to transfer execution into the RAM you were editing.
