Regarding the Surgeon General's warning on video games, their
violence and errant behavior:

I have noticed that, since purchasing my ColecoVision, that I have
developed unnatural fears of such things as rolling barrels, fire
balls, large simians (sp?), carniverous insects, turnstile doorways,
skulls, dungeon rooms, space ships, rockets, bombs, and other
objects that harass me while attending my controller. My animosity
toward these things has been significantly elevated, to the point
that I will probably attack any of these things on sight with
whatever weapon is at hand, should I encounter them while walking
down the street. So just look out - I may inadvertently strike you
with a hammer or an arrow or a bomb or a rocket if you get in the
way of one of my video hallucinations.

Not afraid to name my game,
ColecoVision
