Very, very interesting story. Tells several stories and makes enough of a generalization (about real life versus "in game" virtual reality) that it could be a headliner for This American Life. This seemingly shallow story about someone caught in a virtual world, goes much deeper than expected. You must hear this story. I don't play video games. I do like Star Wars, but this isn't about that at all, this is about humans, and is a very compelling story. If I don't hear this on TAL, I will be surprised.

This is so good, it has to be true. In ten years this will be even better, with more time to figure out what happened afterwards. Never has a game become so much like real life, not in the format of the game, but in the distinction of what is truth and what is reality. Of all the pieces I can remember, this one is my favorite.
