However, there ARE strong meat market implications to such a scenario. I, for one, am more inclined to go to the "net.friendly-people" party envisiaged by him. It's always best to expose yourself to more people, rather than less, when searching for soul-mates (romantic or otherwise). On a crasser level, consider that some ot the attached people sometimes become unattached & then the meat-hunters can pounce!!
