Someone who knows about these things should crosscheck the entry on virtual reality, including my comments in the discussion section. It would be good to have a consistent story on the origin/coinage of the term "virtual reality". It looks to me as if Broderick may well have coined it, though it was popularised with its more usual usage (a "reality" created by use of computers or computerised equipment) by Lanier a few years later.

All that red is distracting. I suggest that we remove it. If someone wants to create an article on any of those books they are welcome to, but meanwhile the page is almost unreadable. Metamagician3000 05:13, 9 March 2006 (UTC)

Note to self: The Last Mortal Generation needs to be added to the list of publications when I've checked its publication date. Metamagician3000 00:12, 25 March 2006 (UTC)
