Thanks for the invite, I'll look forward to seeing how this develops & place my two cents worth when it seems appropriate! Amilie Anatine may be interested as well as she is sounding interested in SL folks connecting. :-)

The KN group meets weekly (at least) in SL. It would be great to cross over, since our paths are so inevitably mingled with the community that defines us...

At 3:26am on May 4th, 2008, Alanagh Recreant said…: Rita, I am in and out of SL the whole time... I suggest that you IM me when you are in-world and you see me. Alternatively, add me to SKYPE - meerkatje or Yahoo - nogmeerkatje. I am also fairly active in Twitter (http://twitter.com/meerkatje) Would LOVE to see you as well. Have so many ideas...

Thats an interesting tip. Will be looking into it. I have some 3D shops interested from Toronto (3D makers of Regenesis, the hit TV show) & Budapest.

This month, -- well, and maybe a few more -- i am tackling financing to finish project off. Particularly, going to NYC Green Drinks on TUE.. have you heard about it?

At 1:47pm on March 31st, 2008, adriano sverko said…: Jumped over to http://www.eurekadejavu.blogspot.com/ (story: "One Soldier's Name Short")... I liked how the virtual world was a spring-board into your personal narrative. That sorta thing has much potential.

On another level, it was an "account" of a family war story, exactly what a memorial is supposed to do, at least for me. I remember a Bosnian marathon runner my family sheltered in NYC during the Balkan Wars. He told me, "Adriano, we are 3 brothers. One of us is a pacifist muslim, i am an athlete, representing B-H internationally, and the thirt is a colonel, quickly promoted from the days he blew WWII bullets up in metal garbage bins stoked by burning garbage, underneath, in an abandoned field. We are all fighting the war, no matter what our profession is."

You may appreciate the French (Vietnamese) monk, Thich Nhat Hanh, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bXQhspVJKxY&feature=related ...
