    Frag the Vote

    I am so sick of Wii news and stories about babypunching and student-shooting that I just vomited tiramisu all over Florian's letterman jacket.

    So here's a link that might help us fix some stuff. Well, we don't need to fix the Wii. But you know what I mean.

    According to ESA president Doug Lowenstein, who cited low voter turnout in the 18-29 age range during the 2004 election, "We want to help engage gamers by offering this new registration tool, and by spreading the word that it's time for gamers to put down their controllers and play for real by voting in the upcoming elections."

    That's sort of a lame tagline, but the idea is sound. Go to it.
