If you were a teenager after about 1978, RPG probably means
"Role Playing Game" to you. If you learned to program before
1978, RPG probably means "Report Program Generator" to you.
D&D in this thread means "Dungeons and Dragons". It's likely
that many on this list have played it, but it's also equally
likely that many have not.
So there you have it.
If this has all been thinly-veiled puns, my apologies - it was too
subtle for me.

Is this a D&D reference?
What is D&D?
Is that a debugger for Report Program Generator messes?
