That is the fault of the folks this author went to school with. Facebook didn’t do anything. I kept in touch with my friends from high school afterwards. We still have reunions so we can get together and tell lies to each other, laugh, comment on how lucky we all are to still be living, remember those who are gone, and just reconnect with a real live human being.
If this author’s group is so shallow that a page on a computer is all they need to feel like they are connected I feel sorry for them.
Nice...
That's exactly how I feel, too. My class was only 180 students. Probably 90% of them were in elementary school with me as well. We keep up on facebook, but it surely doesn't take away from actually getting together.
