But I don't think it is beyone the pale to "educate" newcomers in what has come before, if only by letting them know about their existance and how it influenced the origins of the game (influence that can still be seen in the current incarnation of the game).make sure that anyone coming into the hobby is beaten about the head an ears with a copy of The Lord of The Rings tied to a copy of Ill Met in Lankmar.I'm in favor of this, but then, I agree with my former professor that a sniper should be stationed near the graduation stage of every university to take out any student who has not studied The Republic just as he reaches for his diploma.</blockquote>
