I like this part of that article "What may remain obscure, even now, is why people would choose to play D&D, all night, night after night, for years."

Of course, the group I play in has a 3 or 4 hour session Friday night, start again at Noon on Saturday and play until whenever (usually at least 9 PM), crash at the DM's house and go from 10ish Sunday Morning until about 6 usually.

We recently played through The Sunless Citadel in a weekend. Not to bad considering the youngest is 49 and the oldest (me) is 58.
