Riot Grrrl is working in her Dorm Room at Cal Tech, late into the
night.
Her gear is pretty kludged together, by the look of it, but
functionally, it COOKS! She is whipping out a radical
I-Talk session
with a distant Cyber-Mate on her wide-screen monitor. The images
are Goth -- they use surrogate personae in their transmissions.
Cyber-Mate is saying, "I just bought a
Feel-U-Feel-Me interface from
my rich auntie, who lives in Malibu. After she bought it, she
discovered she just wasn't into it."
"Yeah!",
Riot Grrrl enthuses, "Mine's on order. I managed to trick the
enterprise server into giving me the quantity rate."
"All right!" Cyber-Mate is jazzed, "I hacked together a
simple-but-awesome driver for it -- but there's not much out there,
when no-one's touching back. I haven't been able to hack into
the Cyber-Tantra site yet."
Riot Grrrl replies, "Well, just you chill, Dawg, until I'm on-line."
