With the arrival of D&D 3.5, I'm in the mood to reminisce. We on the outside had no inkling of the geek-utopia that Peter Adkison had created, until this wistleblower article (http://archive.salon.com/tech/feature/2001/03/23/wizards/index.html) appeared in Salon.com in March 2001 and revealed the dirty little secrets.
I was doing some bookmark cleaning and came across it again. Some of you may remember when it came out and how it sent the rpg boards abuzz. With the idealism, betrayals, passions, egos, sex, tragedy, and power struggles, you would think you're reading Macbeth or a trashy dime-novel. For those of you who don't know of it, it's a great and fascinating read.

EDIT - How about I edit out this prolific piece of prose in the interest of brevity and copyright preservation, and leave the link?
