2 is out
It is not #two.
It it true that I can say things here that never happened at Cornell but I can tell since I pass through the campus every day and live among all the current students (on a side of campus I did not live at when I was a student) that the life here can not keep up with our "conversation." That is a goad to continue. It is not virtual either else I would use the CHAT feature more. FOUR defintely applies for me...and it is true that after reading a post or two I start to think, this helps. I think the web actually is a part of induction in science but how much it helps out creation science I do not know nor have much feedback on. So THREE is somewhat true but the field is really somewhat thin for me here as I cant really get to metaphyiscs as explaining things like GOUld or Croizat or contradicting Dawkins takes up more time just now.

EvC conversation has unique attributes

Do you mean that EvC conversation has unique attributes that are not obtainable from conversations with those around you, despite an active social life?
Yes, that is what I mean. Some years from now I can forget about this life I have been trailing in UPSTATE (since '98) but I will not nor could I in the same sense, ever forget about EVC!!
