I'd advise Roger to spend less hours on the Net and reading more books. The more he read, the more cult he will be.
Depending on the country where it happens, Net addiction could be a real problem. Social pressure in some countries make it easy to become.
I don't think we are living in age of addiction.I want to believe that people in my country prefer to go to the beach to stay at home in front of a screen, at least in summer.
My computer is ABSOLUTELY essential for me when I'm working or learning and I get helpless when it doesn't work. However, it doesn't matter if it is as a useless junk for fun and relationship. Real people is the best to speak with.
