:teledildonics: /tel`*-dil-do'-niks/ n. Sex in a computer
simulated virtual reality, esp. computer-mediated sexual
interaction between the {VR} presences of two humans. This
practice is not yet possible except in the rather limited form of
erotic conversation on {MUD}s and the like. The term, however,
is widely recognized in the VR community as a {ha ha only

multi-sensory surround good enough for teledildonics, *then*
we'll know we're getting somewhere."
