Furthermore... THE reason the Internet will never replace [CW] for me is 
simply that it's more than the Internet's communicating in basic terms. 
It's genuine conversation, and in the unique manner of [CW] you have both 
pleasure and information as well as-usually-friendship derived from common 
interests. The Internet imitates this, but never succeeds like good old [CW].
