Internet Addicts Cover Up Habit

[crushing]

NEW YORK (Reuters)—More than one in eight U.S. adults finds it hard to stay away from the Internet for several days at a time and about one in 11 tries to hide his or her online habit, according to a study released on Tuesday.

It found 12.4 percent often stayed online longer than intended, more than 12 percent said they saw a need to cut back on their Internet use, and 8.7 percent tried to conceal "non-essential" Internet use from family, friends and employers.

If that is why you are back, then it is not necessarily a bad thing.

Glad to see you are back. I enjoy your views on things and like to read your posts.

It would seem we are all addicted to MT to a point.
