Jack, you've captured one of the most promising things about the Internet - the creation of community. I like to think all these names -- and yours is one of them -- as expanding circles of support and interest that ultimately bring us all a little closer together.

Jack...I only really began to get over my divorce once I began to meet friends online...One can only find the devil if they look hard enough.
Great tribute to your internet friends...I happily consider myself one of them! There are more folks here at AD willing to be loyal friends than just about any place I've ever been! God bless you for this one, Jack!
I am like Linda, a loner, a passive introvert to the world, a compassionate, witty "person" on my few sites on the web, they ARE one and the same. It's kinda like an autistic, finding a way to communicate with the outside world to show them, "I am a real person", ha, funny, just when I could be anyone I've ever dreamed of, I want to be myself....
Great, sensitive write, Jack.
The internets a different world
where we can escape the realities
of life for awhile. I have more
friends online than off. Offline,
I am very much a loner. Strange, but
this is the only place I can be
myself.
Excellent write!
You are so right! Have people forgot the days of pen pals? When you spent months, sometimes years writing to someone you've never met or seen. Sharing you life, love, hardships and happiness together...I see no difference here other than it's quicker than a stamp! ~ Dee

I've spoken to many friends over the internet over the years. Many of whom I have become distant. I guess the older they get the more less time they have for the internet and the more they realise the real world. Greaet piece!
Cheers,
Tim

Friends and enemies and dangerous people who send viruses to your computer. There are all kind of people to meet here Jack. And over the internet, we can never be sure that we do know them. Bill Murray.
