I realise this is a little off the board topic but hope it is ok to post. I recieved this poem from a friend and I think it embodies all I have found here.
Hope you enjoy it as I did.

On Line Friends
I had some free time, so what did I do? I checked the computer to see if I'd heard from you!
I used to walk out to a box to retrieve mail. But I'd rather get it instantly, than wait on the snail!
Checking my e-mail is always fun! I usually get a joke or greeting from someone.
I feel so blessed because on the other end, I know I've connected with a friend!
When I've had a hard day and need to share,
Here I can find a friend who will listen and care.
And to this friend I hope I've let them know That I am always there for them also!
Isn't it a strange kind of bond we form? It isn't exactly like the "norm"!
But, where is it written, face-to-face we must be, For you to be a very good friend to me??
That little joke or note, or just a simple "Hi", Could be like a ray of sunshine from the sky!
So my online pals, this is dedicated to you,
For all the smiles you have made anew!
May our friendship continue to grow, And the warmth we feel continue to flow!
Always remember this... A smile is such an easy thing to pass along the way, Like a ray of summer sunshine, On a somewhat gloomy day!!
