    And the little bastards are more clever than we give them credit for.

    I watched a really great documentary about the game Oregon Trail, and one of the first bug fixes they needed to add was preventing kids from putting in a negative number when purchasing things which resulted in an infinite money glitch. The developer was amused that the kids figured this out.

    I also learned that Prince was in the same middle school where the alpha version of the game was tested in 1972, which is pretty neat.
