  18. Not true. Next week, I plan to announce a new game. On your computer screen
  19. will appear a bright point of light, representing a ball, perhaps a handball.
  20. You (the player) control a paddle, to prevent the ball from reaching your goal.
  21. The ball bounces around the screen, eventually towards your goal. The object is
  22. to use the paddle to prevent the ball from entering your goal.
  23.  
  24. The new game will be called, "PING".
