Kseniya just got an e-mail from always-ahead-of-the-curve Lycos [Remember them? They did something Internetty once, right? Something superhighwayish?] with the subject, "What the Heck is an Avatar?"

Lycos. Helping the elderly, a few library-trolling homeless, and our brothers under incarceration to raise their collective Internet knowledge to Somewhere Around 1996.
