    Welcome to the downfall of society. You've got mail.

        It is not hogwash, you just dont' want to accept any responsibility for a part you may have played.

        Just because it has it's positive effects does not mean it does not have it's negative effects and that those do not outweigh the positive.

                  Everything has it's bad and good sides....Because if the internet I have met a lot of ppl I otherwise wouldn't have met.

                  Also intrenet gives me freedom, to work when I want, and where. So I have more tim to spend with my friends now, then I would work 9am-5pm
                  Questions?

                    I guess people don't quite grasp the concept of Pandora's Box.

                    Once it's out there..there is no turning back.

                    The internet and it's reach into our lives is so pervasive that you can't avoid it.

                    I expected much more from you Cherry...figured you would at least get the literary reference.

                              I do agree... people refuse to even pick up the phone to call people anymore... people are too lazy to write a letter and mail it... people drive to the corner store (if they can't order it online)....

                              On top of that, it's made people more jaded and less social. People have more free license to do or say anything to anyone... to pretend to be anything.

                              Some people, rather than go outside and meet people and make friends, would rather go online and be bitter and cruel to people in chat rooms and message boards as a form of amusement.

                                Judgment is in..society has changed for the worse and the internet definitely had it's impact.

                                Okay guys...I really gotta get going...LOL

                                I've got 38 minutes to get across town to my classes and I'm not even dressed.

                                    I agree with you. We all need it to survive but we're making it worse. There's so much shit out there that the news doesn't tell you but you can find it on thousands of internet sites. It's the beginning of the end. Put on your tinfoil hats ;)

                                        same can be said about cell phones or cars for that matter

                                        things change, simple as that

                                        whether it is good or not, change is inevitable

                                          I can see how you feel the Internet has proven to have negative aspects. I might even buy into the negatives outweighing the positives. But the Internet causing the downfall of our society? I think that is a bit over dramatic.

                                                    it's not that difficult to get away from the internet. i take off for a week or more at a time into the backcountry each month. no internet, no running water, no cell phone signal, no electricity. you would be surprised at how quickly you forget about all of those things. when i come back it always feels weird to get back online.
                                                    we'll miss you our friend. RIP

                                                          why do you hate life? more new internet inventions really are beneficial to mankind and i don't see any negative things in it.

                                                            Now that is poetic. But I gotta disagree with you.
