This is a community--- like people who bowl together, or go to church together, or walk their dogs every day together... no need to remove yourself, but if you do, you can always come back. This is a very unusual mix of sensitive, intelligent, well-read, insightful people. Why give that up?
I think Deida is talking about "talking" a relationship to death... not that people can't disappear into the internet, but I don't think that applies here.
