Subject: Grim Barrier at Second Life

Grim Barrier at Second Life Avatar attempting break-in at Second Life barrier, without permission s/he cannot enter through the barrier, and there is no permission for someone who is not a member and may not want to become one or may not believe the same things the members believe, so there is only one way to see what is going on, and that is to break in, which is such a hopeless thing, the poor avatar tries and tries at the gates of plenty and nothing seems to work and it is very sad, this useless struggle in the face of overwhelming odds as it seems that the entire world is against hir, even the weather refuses to provide a pleasant day which would make the struggle a delight- ful exercise, but now the brutal wind and cold unseasonable storm certain- ly intervenes, we can only feel terrible sorry and pity for the trials and vicissitudes of the unhappy avatar who pathetically tries forever in an unthinking and unfeeling world passing her by with lives of fulfillment and excitement s/he will never know, http://www.alansondheim.org/slbarrier.mp4
