In the podcasts, Gary Winnick mentioned a Facebook conversation (in some adventure games forum) where someone basically said that Ron Gilbert was “a puppet” and that TWP would never come out. It’d be funny to read. Can someone find it?

Maybe I should turn off the computer and listen the Buddha teachings about consciousness, and then avoiding the eternal repeat of uncontrolled actions…

Or wash your car.
Or travel to a foreign country.
Or dig for buried treasure.
Or photocopy money.
Or go out for pasta.
