ok. To humor you, I'll ask about how it works. How does the stupid Hello 
World thing work? What exactly does it do? How can I apply it to making 
a game? Say I wanted to make a pirate say Hello World!, how would I do 
that? How would I make the pirate saying Hello World? What color should 
his hat be? What is the Ultimate Question to the Ultimate Answer to 
Life, the Universe, and Everything? Actually, don't tell me that. I 
haven't finished reading the book yet.
