I believe I could have written at least one doctoral dissertation with the time I have spent gaming.



But here's the thing:

You wouldn't have written that dissertation if not for gaming. If you were going to write that dissertation, you'd have done so, regardless of gaming. Chances are, without gaming you'd spend that time in the bar or watching vacuous television.



You misspelled "on some New Mexico mountain taking Peyote with an Indian shaman and two female college professors with dubious doctorates."

Yeah but he already DID that if we are to believe him and he did it despite gaming, unlike this mythical dissertation...
