 Your banning announcement didn't had any clause of being factual or positive... it was 100% "don't talk about anything that can relate to MS at all". But since whenever you are banned PS wins, by all means grab a ban =]

 
Over 50% of the conversation in this site is about MS related (look at the hot topics)... how can you enter in a sales discussion like NPD without talk about MS? Looks to me impossible.

 It is how crazy the mod Censorship is.

Virtual Environmental Enrichment through Video Games Improves Hippocampal-Associated Memory

In one set of experiments, the researchers tested self-described "video gamers" on a memory task mediated by the hippocampus and found that those who favor complex 3D video games performed better than their peers who favor 2D video games. They note that "even in a highly competitive population of video gamers, those who specialize in a spatially complex 3D video game outperformed those who specialize in a 2D video game on this same metric."

They then discovered that they could induce the memory-boosting effects by training naive video gamers on 3D video games. They recruited nongamer college students to play either a video game with a passive 2D environment (Angry Birds) or one with an intricate 3D environment (Super Mario 3D World) for 30 minutes daily for 2 weeks. Before and after the 2-week period, the students were given standard tests of memory.
Students playing the 3D video game improved their scores on the memory tests, while the 2D gamers did not. Memory performance increased by about 12%, which is about the level of decline people normally experience between ages 45 and 70 years, the researchers say.

How is British food? - Quora

Quote
I've never understood why British food is maligned.  French food, I could understand - it's usually a tiny serving of a poor cut of meat drowned in enough cream to hide the poor quality, with an asparagus stuck on top.  But, British food - although no Italian - is wonderful.  I cherish my opportunities to go home and enjoy it.
