JA: Thanks for finally admitting that you are NOT using the word "drama" in the ordinary sense of the word but more in line with the way that Wikipediots abuse the term. "Drama Engine" is a neologism that you just made up, so of course the notion of a drama engine cannot figure in the ordinary meaning of the word "drama".

BK: Jon, I did not coin the term "drama engine" as you can discover by reading about [http://www.google.com/search?q=first+generation+drama+engine first generation drama engines], lame though they may be for the purposes that game designers have in mind. '''J'''imbo's '''U'''nintended '''D'''rama '''E'''ngine ('''JUDE''') operates at what I imagine would correspond to a third generation drama engine in the game world. —[[User:Moulton|Moulton]] 21:59, 13 October 2008 (PDT)
JA: I apologize for accusing you of Originality, but your esoteric technical reference, however amusing, only serves to proves my point that the new-fangled notion of a "drama engine" forms no part of what enters the mind of the average person in the street when he or she hears the word "drama".
JA: But let us put the definition of drama aside for now. You are trying to reduce the Bardic and Dramatic Arts to a kind of Accidental Stage Setting (ASS). And that is nothing short of absurd. It is true that people can learn from a climactic absurdity, but what they must learn is the absurdity of the collective premiss. [[User:Jon Awbrey|Jon Awbrey]] 02:46, 14 October 2008 (PDT)
