The danger room is set up like a Japanese garden, complete with low benches, soothing waterfall sounds and the scent of flowers. The only thing out of place is the large red mat with a white circle on it, and the goth chick holding a gong.

GONNNGGGG

"I love doing that." Abby grinned over the fading echo of the gong. "As you can see, we're doing today's class in a slightly different environment. I'll get to that point in a minute."

"Last week you learned how to use ISP's to sign onto the internet, this week we're going to learn how to look at it. We're talking about browsers today. They're a program that you use to access text, images and information on the web." Abby said, giving a very informative lecture.

"Ask most any geek and they'll tell you why their browser is the best. Some of us even have multiple browsers that we use for different tasks." Abby smiled and pointed to a pile of flesh colored plastic. "Today, we'll discover which browser is the best by a totally scientific experiment."

"Fake sumo wrestling."

Abby banged the gong again loudly. "Grab a suit and let's get our sumo on!"

[ooc:~~please wait for ocd threads~~ Up! Go and play!]
[son of ooc: Just in case people aren't aware of the inflatable sumo wrestling phenomenon, here's a couple of pictures of the suits]

"Hey, Professor Abby!"

"What's up, Jude?"

"I just wanted to say thanks for that ~~handwavey~~ letter. I think it really helped." Jude spread his arms. "I'm back, after all."

"Not a problem!" Abby grinned. "It's good to have you back. Although if your parents saw my class today they might rethink that decision."

Jude held up a finger, unconsciously imitating Setsuna's dispensing-Buddhist-wisdom pose. "That's when the spin comes in. Today's class was a serious debate over the relative merits of browers and programming. Duh."

"Duh?" Abby laughed. "I would have called it a comparitive analysis, but serious debate works."

"Comparative analysis sounds good. Dunno if my parents will buy that one, though. Don't think I could keep a straight face long enough."

"That's why email is the best medium for spin."

"And that would totally work if my parents knew what the internet was."

Abby lifted a hand to her heart in shock. "No! They're luddites?"

"Close. They're Polish."

"You must convert them to geekhood." Abby said seriously. "It's your new calling."
