The back-handed Gygax attack thing is something I have suspected when I saw it on sites that mostly focus on non-D&D RPGs.
I am sure those people still exist, but I think this is more of a myth. I also think that the real Dave Arneson fans are a bit of a mystery to those who peddle in gaming history. They rarely come and talk to us, although I have talked to Jon Peterson on occasion

Heh, I remember a time when you were one of the only few people talking about Dave Arneson my friend!
