I can't help but think SL *is* a persitant burning man.

Burning Man (culture) doesn't scale, and is of very limited interest to the bulk of potential customers for SL. At least I _hope_ that's true, for the sake of SL. BTW, aren't mind-altering substances a big part of BM? ![]() Oracle Omega Beware the Metaphor, my son! The jaws that bite, the claws that catch! - Apologies to Lewis Carroll |

I'm not much for the "Burning Man culture." I find it a bit too self-indulgent. But I did want to say one thing in response to Oracle.
A streaming MMOG is a mind-altering substance. I've already sunk several hundred dollars into new equipment for this. I've got it bad. :-D _____________________
