Iv'e heard the road to recovery starts with admitting you have a problem, so here goes. I used to surf the web and go to all kinds of sites, I would play games, read current events, chat about cars and racing. I was on several sites each day. For some time now I have narrowed my surfing to about three sites. Two of them for maybe ten minutes a day and the rest of the time I am here at Cointalk. Is there a cure, and how many other people people are afflicted? __________________ _____________________________________________ corn cam ( Great Iowa passtime) "Life is to short for bad wine" Viper   01-27-2009, 12:17 PM   #2 (permalink) Rushmore Senior Member     Join Date: Jan 2009 Location: Minnesota, USA Posts: 203 My Mood: You could be a Cointalk addict.

If you could be cured, the road to recovery would be very dark and lonely. Never again to be amazed at what knowledge and eye candy that are here to be absorbed.
