The aspect of the planet that is far more important to me is the opportunity to make friends that meet up in real life. The friends that i have met and stayed in touch with on this site are some of the finest people I know

I'm much more of a stalker than I used to be and I spend far too much time in chat now. I still think the opportunity for friendship is key. Being able to spend time with people who "get me" is an awesome feeling.
