    As a user, but not strictly an "addict" I suggest that the info packet contain some disclaimer, such as,,, "Allow for REAL LIFE experiences on a regular basis" and/or "GET OUT OF THAT CHAIR, and EXPERIENCE LIFE" on a regular basis.

    BTW, and with no offense. Technology is increasing at an exponential rate, and already there are "Things" in place that don't "allow" us, as a species, with regard to computers, privacy in many areas, and FREEDOM.

    I would not allow computers to take over lives. People actually get addicted to the internet and spend most of their day on the PC. What's ironic is that when people think they are in fact "communicating" with others, if they use computers too much, they are actually detaching themselves from other people, such as family and friends, because they begin to find social situations difficult as they forget how to communicate with people face to face.

    Do me or anyone else physical harm. Pretty much like some of the libertarians see psychiatric treatment: You can do whatever you want, but if you harm anyone you will go to jail.
