Do you feel like Fluther satisfies a craving for thoughtful or intelligent conversation that is difficult to find in real life?

I feel like “real life” is such a crappy phrase to use, when in comparison to the internet.

Well, do you?

I find that I have a near constant craving for the exact kind of conversation that we have here, but that looking for it face to face is challenging. Is that what appeals to you about Fluther, or is there something else? Do you think that finding a similar quality of conversation is easy in your life outside of Fluther and/or similar sites?
