sardines #1

I have come to realize over that I do not know and probably will not ever know the social circles that my siblings were and are in. The ones that they were in would be more useful to know, but then again could be entirely useless. The different masks that people wear can be dramatically different depending on their environment. Not quite chameleonic. Would they be the type of people for whom I would hold a [often times automatic] prejudiced dislike against? Would they be the sort of people that I would be friends with? Those who I would only be able to place into the category of acquaintance? I would not know.

What place does the internet have in science fiction? Those wasted hours of web browsing? How come there was not much that acted as a parallel to the internet in past works of science fiction? Or maybe I do not read enough science fiction.
