Not all of us I've been playing Turn Based Strategy's since I was 12 (I'm now 17). Not all teenagers are vacuous fools

I was only referring to the twitchy, ADD-afflicted subset of teenagers, not teenagers as a whole.
Of course, when I was a teenager, there were no such things as RTSes (and games were loaded from cassettes! )

Heh, since said subset accounts for about 90% of teenagers, I'd say you're right on the money!
