Any tried this? What did you think? I find it fascinating as a modern culture phenomenon. I hope I can find some time to explore and analyse it.

I'm still trying to navigate the first life. The last thing I need is to explore a virtual reality. Sounds like escapism to me. But that's just me. Oh well! 😉

You know those helmets and body suits they're developing? Where one can experience a virtual thingy? Reminds me of the old Star Trek holodeck. It would be extremely interesting if one could do recreation in such a thing. I have no doubt science will one day develope it. Maybe.

What is a 'thingy' and what do you refer to with the word 'recreation'? I find your language is often impossible to decipher — may I ask where you are from?

Wasn't this a Red Dwarf episode or three?

Recreation. You know, fun activities.

Thingy- an apparatus. 😉

San Diego originally. Lived everywhere from the gutter to the mountain top.

Haven't been there since the 1950's. If you don't like congestion stay out of Southern California. I was in and out of California in the 70's and 80's. Took a vacation in 04 to visit my old haunts after an absence of 17 years. It was unrecognizable. Extremely developed.

Used to go up into the mountains frequently when I lived out there. The deserts too. I'm incline toward remote areas. I doubt if there is still access to most of the places I used to go.

The beaches and boardwalks on the coast are interesting. If you like crowds. Expensive.

I can cope with congestion and crowds. Expensiveness less so, but that could change 🙂 . I looked at some pictures, it looks like a beautiful city with a great climate.

Where were your 'haunts'?
