This history has not been taught, because it has not been prioritized.

To whom do we teach this history, and when? Kids up to high school might not be the best audience, what with them still coming to grips with learning titles like Handmaid's Tale, 1984 and Brave New World. Institutes of higher learning may get a better shot at explaining this subject matter properly, but it won't reach the masses.

If there's a demand, we should let the Free Market decide.

Thurston Harris - Little Bitty Pretty One (probably not it, but it's the best "ooh-woo" song in my head right now)

Cheapass are just great. Their whole ethos is wonderful. My friends used to go on at length about playing Kill Dr Lucky (before I got into modern boardgaming.)
I'm happy to own a very decent copy of their game Tak: such a good game.
