like most advice of this kind, it has some great concepts (effectively - be interactive instead of reactive), but the execution leaves me lacking in the massive amounts of assumptions it makes about how everyone lives their lives.
Being indoors and on the computer *can* actually be providing more healthy social time than you would get by going to the town library - you can be talking LIVE to REAL people, while DOING STUFF with them. ;) I do it all the time.
also, there is a difference between venting and whining. And a lot of people do not know that, for some stupid reason. Whining is not so healthy, but *venting* when things bother you is far more healthy than sucking it up.
