No, not a pun on Mr. Campbell's party leadership - though I think the change from the old penny-on-income-tax to the new money-off-income-tax-and-on-pollution is damned daring. No, just a bad visual pun, 'cos I'm starting to poke around with object creation in Second Life and, well, it made me smile.

I see one of Bacon's screaming popes.

Second Life really interests me now, but I'm terribly worried it'll suck my life out through my nose. I've avoided MUDs for so many years because of this but I feel my will bending.

It *will*. I avoided the whole MMORPG thing for exactly the same reason - that plus the level treadmill leaving me cold - and yeah, it's horribly addictive. Especially if you've had backburner desires to build 3D-world stuff (Victorian monowheel..?). But you do need a fat pipe and really, a better graphics card than I've got.
