• Computer is a great invention. What could our live be without a computer? Most of people of my age play online games, chat on ICQ or forums. But you know, I really miss old times, when a rare letter was so pleasant to be received! And now - everybody are at home, Internet influences them greatly. And nobody wants to dream; to write stories or poems... We all are caught in a large net. It looks like freedom, but it's a prison, though very nice to be in. So I make an appeal to focus on our life! The world around us is full of wonders...
