I'm thinking maybe I could sell parts of *myself* to avid avatar-heads. Anybody want part of a shaved-head, zen, gandhian, novelist, web designer, dulcimer-playing, queer, hippie, academic?

Egad, this sounds like a personals ad. Signing off...

Seriously, interesting stuff. Thanks for posting it, Beth.

Dear Joseph,

I could use a bicep and a femur for a creature I'm building^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^Hclass project.

As long as it doesn't cost an arm and a leg.

(Beth, do bring the article... I'm fascinated with the whole avatar-building phenomenon.)
