You're like a breath of fresh air in the often smokey world of gamethought. It's so nice to have you back. Mo, everything you say is generally awesome.

I'm glad the time away helped you get a new perspective on things. And good on you for the move to specifics. The one common thread I've found in my discussions of immersion (especially in one-on-one discussions with various people) is that the idea means something slightly different (or extremely different) to just about everyone. It's got a lot of baggage. Besides, I really like the idea of sockets and definitely want to hear more about them. Oh, and welcome back! Thomas Mo,
