Good comments on "real time" versus "virtual time". Here's another application:
discussions on terminology (such as these) can occur in virtual time, via
email. Other discussions (marriage proposals, salary negotiations) *should*
happen in real time, face to face. Or at least voice to voice. Are there, by
the way, happier phrasings for the concepts I am presenting here?
