[a rose by any other name?]

"...once you have created an object of the variety called 'room' it can become anything simply by virtue of the way you name and describe it" (Sue Thomas, Hello World, 212). Hrm...this got me thinking. Even in virtual worlds language seems to be the "supreme" power? We can create anything via the language we choose to employ. Suggests to me Juliet who also recognises the power of language and no longer wishes to be a Capulet...much to think about here vis-a-vis women, language, and virtual environments/fiction.

Any thoughts?
