Raph is the designer of Metaplace.

Soon we will not have to have any personal contact with other people at all. I think Issac Asimov predicted that (way back in the 1950s!) in his novel "The Naked Sun". Holographic projections took the place of "disgusting" interpersonal contact. You wait. It'll come to that!
