Romance among the D&D-playing; chimp researchers

Lampbane sez, "My friends Laura & Adam were spotlighted in the New York Times. They talk about falling in love while playing D&D;, and living in the Congo while they researched (and helped rescue a few) chimps. Nerdy, and incredibly touching. Laura also has a great blog about her research (on the correlation between the consumption of bushmeat and disease transmission) in Congo, ending with a very harried escape."
