Internet is an addiction ?

This slashdot story describes a human experiment when a set of internet hooked people were made to go through for 2 weeks without internet access. By the end of the experiment the participants were frustrated and feeling disconnected.
Funny eh ??
Well it is true, I have been through this sort of feelings when I go back to Bombay, there at my home, I do have an internet connection, but it is snail paced. And I feel uneasy, in just a couple of days. If you have not been through this feeling, try this, for one day, in office, try not to open your mail client, you will see what these guys are talking about.
