Other
Journalism
- “Video Games and Violence” in Rock Out Censorship #15 [archive]
- (A lot of other work for ROC, and it seems like I wrote another article or two. I also remember a painful project HTML-izing their entire site from bad photocopies.)
- I wrote a rambling letter to the editor of the IUSB school newspaper about the first Iraq war in 1991 that ended up becoming a front-page article, but I’m too embarrassed to post it, sorry.
