I am pretty psyched about Eben's "Statement on Interim Grades" because (1) I haven't finished any of my rewrites and (2) I am the only extern in my office and I will finally have someone to talk to now that people will be rocking the TWiki for at least the next month.

 Hopefully, as we enter this increasingly virtual era, the primal aggression that feeds war and destruction will be contented by killing enemy avatars and bombing Second Life real-estate.

Nona- unfortunately, I think that your "increasingly virtual era" will lead to more comfort with the idea of using destructive technologies. Putting aside the possibly nonexistent correlation/connection between video games and violence, we do know that weapons technology has already incorporated and exploited our generation's familiarity with joysticks and fancy buttons that do such things. This scares me.
