So its like that Star Trek episode where Wes and that
cute chick resist the piece of headgear that zaps the
crew's brain on every success?
If it was like that there'd be more subscribers I
think.
Also, I don't know any *real* junkies who give up
their horse for EQ horses :)
Some people have no lives, and if it wasn't EQ it'd be
button collecting, beanie babies and crap. Just
because they focus their neurotic behavior on EQ
doesn't mean EQ caused their neurotic behavior.
