does anybody know approximately when tit-tat-toe got renamed
tic-tac-toe? Or is a regional thing?
Probably when the puritanical religious right zealots got wind of the

That's my assumption too. I searched for "tit-tat-toe" using altavista,
and it brought up references to Huck Finn, but more interestingly, it
confused the altavista context-sensitive advertising banner engine enough
to show me porn ads!
