    tempe, az... (Dungeons and Dragons)

    I lived in Tempe for brief period and I can attest the the homeless kid culture is as scary as it gets. one more note... the Dungeons and Dragons reference was a little bit over the top. Generally, Dungeons and Dragons is associated with satanism (although that is also very silly). Please adopt some other fantasy reference source. Aside from the D&D reference which carries a lot of silly baddage, a very interesting and excellent article.
