In their latest issue they have the words "Computer Sex" on the cover, which lead you a wonderfully deep article that takes a whole 8 column-inches and has Milton Wolf (head of acquisitions for the Getchell Library of the University of Nevada at Reno!) talking about how VR will be used for computer-induced sexual experiences. The sultry picture of Morgan Fairchild is as large as the article... Oh well. I'm sure that V-Sex will happen sooner or later, but if you're going to bring up the topic it'd be nice to have a substantial discussion. -- "And I get frightened, just like you, I get frightened too, but it's no time for heartache, no time to run and hide, to time for breaking down, no time to cry." --"No Time to Cry", Sisters of Mercy "Hey, Saddam, this Scud's for you!" --stevec@bu-pub.bu.edu (Steve Connelly)
