Merge?[edit]

Regarding[edit]
Self expression[edit]
and
Therapy[edit]
Both subsections cite the same Wired article about Sherry Turkle - but that article doesn't mention either anecdote. A quick google shows a few pages that duplicate this wikipedia entry in its entirety, but nothing else. As I haven't read Turkle's "The Second Self", I cannot tell if this is merely a bad citation (perhaps original contributor meant to cite "The Second Self"?) or a complete fabrication. Someone who has read her book (her, she's a women, not a "he" as the article states) may know better? DriveByTroll (talk) 08:08, 23 January 2013 (UTC)
