Didnt the Romans have a 'forum'? Do forums (or is it forii?) not provide for our basic need to socialise and create and renew the 'network connections' which give us a sense of belonging in a society? I suppose we are pack animals by instinct and have a need to form a pack or 'community'. Maybe the tfp members have subconciously elevated Hal to the alpha-male role?
With so many people living alone and with fewer extended families living together it is natural that people should use the internet to emulate physical forums.
