Well said, and that is no judgement against hiyou102, but rather an admission of my current state. Of late, I have been finding myself trying to skim through well written articles to get to the "meat" of the article. Why? Because I know that there are many others behind it fighting for my attention. Information overload. When reading this article I literally had to say to myself, " you will take the time to read this in full." -Crazy that I have to do that.

I recently took 10 days away from work, my computer and everything else but my wife and several books. Reading several books in one week felt so familiar and comforting. Why? Because having the same voice talking to my conscious for longer than ten paragraphs was refreshing. The internet can be like a series of one night stands, you never get to love the one you're with.
