- > What kind
- >of experiences (good and bad) have _net_ people had?

- Same as anything else. I placed one (on a bet) about six years
- ago. I got around 85 responses. Most of the men I met were pretty cool.
- Bad thing: most were psyshrinks. (I still haven't figured that one out
- but I did get a lot of free therapy out of the deal.)

- >make them work better?
