Thank you. One of the wonderful things about the internet is the opportunity to meet so many interesting and wonderful people. People I'd never have met otherwise. I've moved many, many times growing up and in my career and I'm so tired of leaving friends behind. The internet means I don't have to leave my friends behind anymore when I move from place to place. However, the experiences I've had with leaving friends behind and with the differences between in-person and tele-person interaction add up to a pretty peculiar outlook and somewhat unusual social graces. I hope you don't find these offensive.
