I'm not sure how I feel about someone getting $100,000 to "study" how Americans play World of Warcraft. There is no way that anything valuable could come out of this $100,000 "research" project. How could anyone justify needing $100,000 to study people who play WoW? Their argument is that they want to find out why Americans make more mods for WoW and the Chinese do. I could tell you the reason right now for $0. The Chinese are too busy playing WoW to feed their families. They don't have time for programming mods.

It would be nice to see that $100,000 check in my mailbox now that I've answered the question they had.
