Rik Riel's weekly round-up of upcoming SL events...
Like
it or not, weapons are a part of the Second Life experience. Kitty
Rich is teaching a course on Thursday November 9 at 2AM SLT on the "sensible use of weapons"
that will cover the basic rules and protocols for using weapons,
experiment with a few, and explain what constitutes weapons
abuse. Learn how to play safely and legally in SL and how to handle
those who don't peacefully. First rule: don't shoot a push gun wearing
roller skates. At Kuula (54, 175).
Also
coming up this week, a NASA project comes to SL, support for weight
loss, battling 'bot action, horseracing, and meditation for the weary
avatar soul.
