"Tetris addiction sweeps campus"
We are writing to warn the MIT community of a deadly new addiction
being seen on campus. This is none other than compulsive "Tetris"
playing. This computer game may seem innocent at first, but it
quickly develops into a mind-numbing habit. Players neglect their
social lives, their school work, and their families in a never-ending
quest to improve their "Tetris" skills. This insidious electronic
villain has invaded personal computers, workstations, and even the
Student Center Committee Gameroom. Only by quitting cold turkey can a
"Tetris" player resume his/her normal lifestyle. Just say NO to
"Tetris".
