I did a blog post not long ago where I talked about how appalled I was at myself for bringing a book to a picnic and sneaking off to a remote corner of the yard to read it. And then, I was tweeting at the same party. It's amazing how sometimes the virtual world can be more appealing than the real one... when in reality there's no substitute for actual human interaction.Gina Cioccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18024256412233972412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4513702670120363707.post-15474598855008265112011-10-24T11:40:53.394-04:002011-10-24T11:40:53.394-04:00Sounds good!

Romance and intimacy has become evil in every one of them. Not the world I want to live in. :PStinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11415189347501942340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4513702670120363707.post-80110780304008706562011-10-24T08:17:30.041-04:002011-10-24T08:17:30.041-04:00That cover is so cool.

I seem to recall that one of the books in the Isaac Asimov Foundation series involved an evolution of the human race that left them unable to interact except through computers. But since then, I haven't seen the subject addressed. Thanks for sharing!Dianne K. Salernihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16459839567235304842noreply@blogger.com
