Thanx Zung!
Nope, I'm always nearby, my son is too young, he needs help frequently anyway.
Dats true that there are now nice 3D RPG like Morrowind, Oblivion and NWN2; PoR could hardly compete with them. Now PoR is indeed playable, use 3rd edition D&D rules and there are no other computer games in Pool of Radiance setting AFAIK.
I heard stories that non-patched PoR erased all on the hard disc RoFL.
So I was cautious with it and installed the latest patch immediately.
Nobody speaks perfect English lol and it's not necessary. If U saw how French or Spanish speak English (which happens quite rarely), U'd consider yourself a linguistic champion.
