My appologies for poor spelling. As soon as I found out that
spelling didn't count on the GMAT, I gave it up for lent.
Those guys at AT Kearney are making you uptight! (only kidding!)
I typed that last comment as I was late for class so I rushed.
Typos that indicate rushing or panic is an interesting way of
flushing out an emotion on a on-line forum. What are some of
the other ways? The old fashioned smilies ;) for instance, also
swearing, etc.

Anyway, I agree with Brian that there are ways of expressing emotion
in an on-line community. I also agree that there are many ways of
hiding emotion in personal "non-online" relationships.

More and more people are getting those little cameras on top of their
computers, and I am sure it is only a matter of time before there will
be those type of virtual communities. Will that be better for emotions on-line?
