Barry Artiste Op/Ed
Okay, now someone here seriously needs to get a life, especially if you cannot even get a spouse in real life to marry you, to get rejected digitially is well...................... Loopy. This woman and the actual Police who charged her with the crime, really have nothing on Trekkies!
All hands onboard the HoloDeck No.1 !!

Wife kills digital hubby
October 24, 2008 By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
TOKYO -- A 43-year-old player in a virtual-world game became so angry about her sudden and unexpected divorce from her online husband that she logged on with his password and killed his digital persona, police said yesterday.
The woman used another player's ID and password to log onto the popular interactive game Maple Story to carry out the virtual murder in May, a police official in the northern city of Sapporo said.
Police said the woman admitted to carrying out her cyberspace revenge and has been jailed on suspicion of illegally accessing a computer and manipulating electronic data. "I was suddenly divorced, without a word of warning.
That made me so angry,' the official quoted her as telling investigators.
The woman, a piano teacher, had not plotted any revenge in the real world, the official said.

francis articles are sometimes an hour difference, the early asian birds...., I recommend, that you just flag the Article, it shows good style. We are all a family here, everybody has his fanclub and reads there. A military street language towards other NP members you should avoid, thanks.
