(Off topic) A new hope?

/serious

I'm watching news coverage of the US presidential inaugration and I'm getting goose-bumps. I'm not even American. Most of history's momentous occasions pass us by, or else go unrecognised, but it feels like I am right in the middle of this one. I've never known a public figure to ignite so much hope and optimism on such a universal scale. I know right now he is the most important person of my generation. And not just because he's the first US president to play World of Warcraft. Although I expect mages to be buffed considerably in the next patch. No matter what happens next, he has already achieved something remarkable and I wish him the best of luck for the future. Just wanted to get that off my chest :)
