赛勒斯问道：“爸爸，我是从哪里来的？”

爸爸说：“啊！我的孩子，我想你总有一天会要寻找这个问题的答案的！”父亲心里思考着如何用一种孩子能够理解的方式给儿子解释。

最后他说：“你看，我和你妈妈第一次相遇是在一个MSN的聊天室里，然后我通过电子邮件给她发送了一个约会的邀请，并约定在一个网上的咖啡屋见面。”

“然后发生了什么？”

“我们偷偷进入了一个私密聊天室，在那里，你母亲同意从我的硬盘上下载资料，当我刚刚开始上传时，竟然发现我们两人均没有安装防火墙，但这时候已经来不及敲 Esc 键了…."

“然后呢?”孩子接着问。

“九个月后，一个祝福的小弹出窗口出现在我的屏幕上，上面写着：你有一个男孩了。”

Cyrus asks: "Daddy, where did I come from?"

Dad says: "Ah, my son, I guess one day you will need to find out anyway!" and ponders how to put it in words the lad can understand.

"Well," he finally says, "you see your Mom and I first got together in a chat room on MSN. Then I set up a date via e-mail with your mom and we met at a cyber-cafe."
"Then what happened?"

"Well, we sneaked into a secluded room, where your mother agreed to a download from my hard drive. As soon as I was ready to upload, we discovered that neither one of us had used a firewall, and since it was too late to hit the ESCape key…."

"Then what?" the boy asked.

"Nine months later a blessed little Pop-Up appeared and said: ‘You’ve Got Male!’"
