Ender's Shadow

What's remarkable about this New York Times report about technology and training in the US armed forces isn't the dystopian bleatings about soldiers mistaking video games for real life (a question so preposterous only a journalist would think of it. HINT: real combat is when people are shooting at you), it's the fact the army guys are acknowledging the influence of one of my all-time favorite SF books, Ender's Game, on their thinking. Yet another reason to go back and re-read it. :)
