FINLAND DISMISSING 'NET-ADDICTED' CONSCRIPTS
A growing number of conscripts have to be dismissed from Finland's armed forces every year due to an Internet addiction that makes them unsuited for service. A Finnish official says: "It's an increasing problem. More and more young people are always on the Internet day and night. They get up around noon and have neither friends nor hobbies. When they get into the army, it's a shock to them." There are no specific figures and the military has yet to give the condition a proper dismissal code in its health records.

Satan is the one responsible. Nothing is inherently evil in and of itself. It's what humans do with it and sooner or later we WILL "f" everything and anything up. By the way Ed, it's always good to see your smiling snout and fluffy coat.

Can't even give a guy a compliment around here. :dunno:
