There was an American guy in a chatroom who took an insane amount of drugs whilst chatting to regulars on there, it was only when his replies started slowing down and not making sense, and he didn't answer his cellphone, *some* of the people in the chatroom became worried. You're right about kids knowing the technologies better than most of the adults - thats why there are so many angst-ridden teen hackers.They know on a mIRC channel that if there's a bot running that censors swearing just by mis-spelling certain words or adding characters around the words, they will get through (like c-u-n-t is blocked on this forum) If that chatroom had been moderated by a human, maybe it wouldn't have gone as far and he'd be still alive...</blockquote>
