I ended up knowing much more about their personal lives and their mental states, but found I was actually seeing them less and less... Maybe Web 3.0 will come with flesh-like Wii controllers that remold, grip, and squeal based on whatever the person on the other end of the internets is doing. I for one, can't wait!Cliffordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07981816941459227266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14761314.post-15542135266452508742007-06-16T07:48:00.000-05:002007-06-16T07:48:00.000-05:00You know that's true, Charles, you often find peop...You know that's true, Charles, you often find people being bolder at a keyboard than in real life. <BR/><BR/>Sounds like fun, Stewart. A good political discussion is always stimulating, and a good movie.Sidneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16284680909152676159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14761314.post-75895505917452546092007-06-15T10:53:00.000-05:002007-06-15T10:53:00.000-05:00I was talking with Lana about this last night, and...I was talking with Lana about this last night, and was saying, although I'm often good with mostly online social contact that I'd always want to get together with friends for real on occassion. That's what is so much fun about Howard Days, actually seeing the people I've corresponded with for real. I've also found that online assholes are often much nicer in reality.Charles Gramlichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02052592247572253641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14761314.post-31809793956163182362007-06-15T09:37:00.000-05:002007-06-15T09:37:00.000-05:00I am about to head out of here and hook up with bu...I am about to head out of here and hook up with buds who I see about six times a year. We eat, see movies, sit around and talk politics and nonsense. We've been friends for close to forty years.<BR/><BR/>Yeah, the online stuff is wonderful, but the flesh is the thing. <BR/><BR/>I don't know if you or anyone you know did the online dating thing. What astonished me was how different the feel of people from the presence and intensity of online.Stewart Sternberg (half of L.P.
