When I managed a chemical plant, I instituted a rule that there would be no playing games on our computers. So I wouldn't be a hypocrite, I had an information technologist get rid of the games on my laptop. Therefore I was surprised to find my grandson playing solitaire on it one weekend. I asked if he had loaded the game. 'No,' he answered, 'it was already there. It was just hidden--taken off the main menu.' On Monday I chided our information technologist for not getting rid of the game. 'But,' he explained, ' I thought I just had to keep it away from you--not from a nine-year-old!'
