No! Not an other list. *Lintra grits his teeth* I will not succumb, I will NOT. I swear there is no way I'm gonna add to this list. No way. Nope. Not me.

Whew. *Lintra relaxes as the fit passes on* That was close!

Well according to my dictionary I've been mangling this poor word for years. However, my Oxford has as ending .... crum, so plural it would be simulacra.

Yeesh. Learn something new every day here at the dot.

Simulacrum is latin, simulacron the 'greekizised' version. And I am, of course, influenced by Daniel F. Galouye's novel 'Simulacron Three' (--> 'Thirteenth Floor' the movie). Never mind .

And so the discussion turns way beyond Pinnens knowledge and ableability.

Galouye? Does he write in English? Is he worth reading?

As far as I know he was from the USA. Don't think he wrote much, but I liked what I read of his stuff. Another one of those folks who wrote about virtuality.

I'm not sure if a feminine title would go very well along with Jaz's avatar. I took me two months or so to just realize you were a female.

It's hard to find an avatar that is more male-ish than the current.

You have to ask yourself Lintra; is there anything not worth reading. Or at least try to read? Or at the very least, glance at?
