Sounds good. Enjoy.

As for learning from the internet, my experience has been the very opposite of yours. Just a phenomenal place to learn. I will never forget Faultline's online seminar on foreign policy on the FADG thread. Learned a great deal; made several long term friends; etc.

Discussing matters here with folk who don't share my political views helps me rethink my views and, in some cases, change elements in them. Trying to convince someone else causes me to go back to basics and rethink. More often than not I find I come out in a different place with different particulars.

So, from my experience, the internet has been a stunning success.
