What I’ve noticed about we humans is that the more densly packed we become, the less civility we show. Take a drive a couple of hours out of any major city, stop at one of those mega-service road side complexes and suddenly you find people holding the door for each other and giving rite-of-way in the parking…oh wait, that doesn’t happen, period.  But you see what I mean. I’m not trying to be too glib here. I just happen to think that whatever civility we had online came more from that sense of exploring and defining a big frontier and the power which comes from that experience being shared.

Hi Jeff,  I think it’s practially a truism about people hiding behind KBs and letting their worst characteristics rule. We see it over and over again. Some of us, perhaps many of us lose that sense of empathy when we are not interacting in person or have no shared sense of need/dependancy. Of course, my point was a generalization.
