I think talking through some of the logistics is a great idea; I’m not convinced, personally, that the cost/benefit works for these kinds of projects (or even how they’re measuring it).

Oh, and I neglected to mention the Play the Past folks my post, www.playthepast.org/ — interesting stuff there, too.

I’m honestly a bit intimidated as someone who hasn’t had much engagement with video games since the original Sega, but I definitely see the potential for it. I remember Sandra Day O’Connor getting involved with games a few years ago: www.wired.com/gamelife/2008/06/justice-oconnor/. I think it would be helpful to touch on the logistics as well as the grand potential, as my immediate thoughts go to matters of cost, programming, etc.

Great thought! I look forward to participating in the conversation any way I can!
