"Let's not get away from the power of the boob factor," said Dalton.
Dude, another miss quote. Well, at least a quote taken out of context. I guess I haven't had that happen to me in awhile, so maybe it was due. What I said was "Women gamers are great for marketing. They hit women audiance for by showing them they have a place in vidoegames, and they hit male audiances because the power of the boob factor." Err, perhaps thatwas not the best comment I could have said, period...but those dang writers are so good about getting you in a comfort zone! Arrrg.
Oh ,well...on another note, that was a great piece! The writer did a great job!! :)

You ladies always have my respect. I have respect for female gamers I dont get mad at them while I'm in a game, If I know there is a female in the same game as me I show more respect to them then I do guys. And I wish someday there will be a female president in this Country and maybe this country will be a lot better than these days.
