Well, I can't believe I actually have something BIONICLE to blog about. I was readying Chapter 2 of Journey's End when my jaw just about hit the floor. It was the phrase "Core War" that did it to me. Most of you may not know or remember that one of my claims to fame is as "Father" of rec.games.corewar, a newsgroup devoted to a game for computer programmers known as "Core War". My name even appears in an issue of Scientific American because of it. (Newsgroups are the predecessor of Internet forums such as this one.)

My biography on another BIONICLE site used to mention Core War. It is remotely possible that Greg Farshtey read it at one time and it wormed its way into his subconscious. That's my story anyway, and I'm sticking to it.

Here's a link to the history of Core War:

I was Editor of The Core War Newsletter for most of those eighteen issues, by the way.
