At GenCon, I picked up a book for a minute and scanned a chapter on D&D which had been written by Richard Garfield (creator of Magic: the Gathering). In it, he said something to the effect of, "Calling Dungeons & Dragons an innovative game is like calling the Wright Brother's machine an innovative car." They both completely redefined something, according to Garfield.
But now I have no idea what book that was in. Anyone own it? Know about it? Anything?

I'd love to see the quote if it's accurate. IIRC the Wright Bros. invented a plane....

It's pretty close, and if I get the book (which I hope to), I'll get you the quote.
If anyone's interested, the book is here:
