To *us*, they maybe are similar. They're both an alternate reality in a
role-playing game we play.
To a decker, entering the magical plane would be wholly unbearable and
strange. To a magick'er, plugging that wire into his head, well man, thats
just fragging scary. To the sammy, they're both a little off kilter.
To my friends, I'm rather nuts playing on the computer during my
lunchbreak. To me, driving around town blaring shit dance music is rather
silly. Perspective changes Everything.
