but twiddling a mouse and keyboard to enter text on a forum is rewarding ? There are a lot of parallels.Abraham wrote:I wonder how many us over 30, well o.k., over 60 play video games?
Though, to be sure, I enjoy some games...Scrabble comes to mind. Chess, though I'm barely mediocre.

This forum could be described as an artificial town hall, or an artificial bulletin board, like used to be at post offices.
Electronic Bulletin Boards are the precursor to forums.
Every one is entitled to their opinion.
I do play video games, mostly now as a distraction to keep me busy while on my exercise bike ...

I know that if I woke up with the desire to be condescending I know where I could look for inspiration.
