Mitch at Information Week clearly stirred by this story (er...) asks Is It Adultery If The Sex Happens In Second Life? which is sorta like asking is it cheating if you don't get caught? Is there a zen point about this? If a prim penis ejaculates in the metaverse and is not felt, it does not count? Mitch quotes Kamath as saying: "It 'happened' in your mind. That's all that matters. Answer: yes"--yikes! Which is a notion that certainly something that scares the crap out of me. It's one thing to have to "control" my avatar, but let's not get crazier and start being accountable for what goes on in my head all day long!! If Clintion can try to talk his way out of a blow-job in the White House, seems like a few pose balls shouldn't be admissable in court.
