"Huh? Oh, you mean the Metaverse. It's not like that. People go in and out. I mean, there's some bitheads who're goggled in a lot, like my pod Hiro, but he works there. Although he also wears a gargoyle rig - that's, like, a portable computer - with a Metaverse overlay, which is so geeky it's not even funny. I make sure he gets a healthy dose of Reality every now and then. Juanita keeps him in line, too. She's his girlfriend and the smartest person I know."
