That reminds me of 4th grade at Catholic school. A teacher saw me reading the AD&D DMG and asked me why I should be reading it. I rattled off some fancy vocabulary like "miscellaneous" ... She left me alone after that.Gygax was a big influence on me as a child as well. Thanks to Gygax I was one of those weird little kids who used words like obfuscate in everyday speech (although as a teen I quickly learned that clear concise speech and simple language is preferable!). Seriously though, I credit Gygax for my excellent vocabulary and good SAT scores.
