  meatspace
   /meet'spays/, n.
  
     The physical world, where the meat lives -- as opposed to
     cyberspace. Hackers are actually more willing to use this term than
     `cyberspace', because it's not speculative -- we already have a
     running meatspace implementation (the universe). Compare RL.
