No, not another metameta Title! This one directly relates to what I am going to write. I like to peruse the Classifieds inworld, and I surely do hope there's a better way to sort, like by DATE, because let's face it: humans without a sense of time go INSANE. (In the worst of ways.) This is not only why following instructions IN ORDER is important, but why time travel as a curiousity ov greate intereste goes past any small cult audience and has touched+felt the public at large many, many times.

Chrischun Fassbinder is a man with a plan. Or at least, ideas. One of his wonderfully-executed ideas happens to be this adrepresentation from a postcyberpunk classic. If you've clicked on the pic and still don't know what's up, no frets. Learn more about Mr. Lee's Greater Hong Kong, as featured in the award-winning novel Snow Crash. Which, incidentally, used to be cited more often as an inspiration for Second Life, but notsomuch nowadays.

Needless to say, this ad falls squarely into the category of, "WOWZA! I wish this was done earlier in SL, but I'm glad it has been."

In the comments for that pic on Snapzilla, Octal Khan sagely quipped:


This rocks! someone make a Rat-thing out prims quick


I can't agree more, and I think by the time we've got more living "NPCs" (what a cold term) and artificial life in SL, like There has dogs, someone or someones will be on it.

Until then, we continue to dream.
