I’m off on my hols next week and the place we’re staying doesn’t have internet access!!! Spooky, off line, no google to solve the crossword, settle arguments or to look up how to play that song I keep humming (I will be taking a guitar!). They tell me the local McD’s has wireless but my laptop is an ebay special, the battery doesn’t last through the lengthy boot process 
Cold turkey for me then. I guess I can score a fix at the library or internet cafe but I’m not sure that I’ll visit any site that requires a password (the same, only more, could be said of McD’s open wireless).
Oh well, I guess I’ll survive, but will the world survive without a post on my blog? Only time (or the patently obvious) can answer…

We can start a support group for you if you get serious withdrawals.
It’s not so much the lack of internet access it’s the hundreds of emails when you get back to civilisation. I went through it a couple of years ago and it took me ages to clear up and catch up.

Oh yes, there were 100’s. That’s not counting the 100 or so a day that my filters catch AND I had remembered to set my various yahho groups (freecycle etc) to daily digest. Still finding a mail telling me I had a comment about getting lots of mail made me smile!
