How about someone doing some research to demonstrate that there is: Reading Addictive Disorder in people who read too much; Tennis Addictive Disorder in people who play too much of that game; or TV Addictive Disorder in people who station themselves in from of the tube for hours and hours. My original "criteria" for IAD may be found at: http://www.cog.brown.edu/brochure/people/duchon/humor/internet.addiction.html It is not accidental that the word humor is part of the URL.
