From the "things you find when looking for something else" file:

The Dark Secrets behind the Monopoly (R) board game uncovered!

This site uncovers the sordid history of the all-american staple, Monopoly. You'll learn how the evil corporation that spawned Monopoly used an stolen idea (from Quakers, no less!) to leverage over a billion dollars in extra profits at our expense. How the evil corporate owners have fought to keep others from capitalizing on the Monopoly franchise, and how one heroic economics professor stood up to the dark powers of the Monopolists - and lived to write a book about it!

You'll laugh, you'll cry! Or not.
