Uh, yeah -- that's what I've been doing for about 8 years.

It's a good distraction.

Sadly, it also become embedded in our culture.  So, the price I pay for not
checking my email at night, for example, is that I may miss new homes
listings that get sold in 2 days.

I guess the Silicon Valley Childfree Meetup is the local NK board.  (It's
