     <application, virtual reality> /tel"*-dil-do"-niks/ Sex in a
     computer simulated virtual reality, especially
     computer-mediated sexual interaction between the VR presences
     of two humans.  This practice is not yet possible except in
     the rather limited form of erotic conversation on MUDs and
     the like.  The term, however, is widely recognised in the VR
     community as a ha ha only serious projection of things to
     come.  "When we can sustain a multi-sensory surround good
     enough for teledildonics, *then* we'll know we're getting
     somewhere."
