I am watching video of an American novelist in Second Life played on YouTube
Computers are great for art, I like the opinions of Kurt Vonnegut Jr. on extended families. I have an extended family. I have family on three continents and in at least four countries. But Vonnegut actually seems to think travel negates extended families whereas I think travel is easier these days making the local part of the extended family definition Vonnegut used less valid. Also and this fits his definition what defines a family is changing and thus my family is being extended by relations such as adoption, convenience and the Internet for staying in touch.
