Virtual Reality Fails Its Way to Success: Who knew that the urge to puke could be rendered in such florid prose, wow, the NY Times, I guess has to justify the cost of the paper. "When I first spied Palmer Luckey he was clinging to the floor, moaning and,oh yeah, it was a dark and stormy night".

I fell sick. Sick unto death, or so it seemed. The first thing that deserted me was interest in the spectacle; my own biological crisis monopolized my curiosity. The word “rift” thrummed in my swimming head. Uncanny illusions produced by the Oculus headset had indeed cleaved an unbridgeable rift between the evidence of my senses and an awareness of space and time deeper in my body.
