Sadly this one doesn't have any juicy reporting from Blizzard in it (maybe the Blizzard staffers are still reeling from their horsehead iconography seminar), but it does have some interesting quotes...
Apparently the honorable Mr. Pachter doesn't know people like us. Then again the NY investment banker types I know make the charicatures in movies like American Psycho seem tame in comparison. (Spend most of the day ordering new office furniture, watching HDTV baseball games in their finely appointed offices and yet still managing to get a few deals made between lunch cocktails and afternoon cocktails to justify that 6 figure floor on their annual bonus) |
If there's one thing American's *don't* lack it's the ability to sit on our collective lazy asses and play online video games. It's not surprising that one pseudo-intellect can make random assumptions about a field where he has no experience and yet be taken seriously at the same time for his comments.
It's also not surprising that if you rearrange the letters in "Mr. Pachter's" name you get: "S.M.R. Patcher"...
Perhaps he works for Sigil, trying to throw us for a loop.
