（单词翻译）
M: So how did you meet Bill?
W: I met him through a computer bulletin1 board.
M: Oh, really? Which bulletin board?
W: It was one I used down at the local coffee house called the San Francisco Net. It's been around since around 1991.
M: I've heard about that, but I've never tried it.
W: You ought to. One dollar buys you 15 minutes of computer time. A “Chat session2” links you with cappuccino sippers in other cafes and also to home computers on the network.
M: I have no desire to talk on a network with a bunch3 of strangers.
W: That's the whole point. All your inhibitions disappear because you can’t see the other person. This network allows you to talk to people whom you normally4 wouldn’t talk to.
M: I just want a private conversation with one other person.
W: You can do that. A private session lets two people talk alone. This techno-chat program lets you talk about anything with everybody, without prejudice5 because you can’t see them.
M: Well, maybe I'll tag6 along and watch how you talk.
W: That's fine with me, but we'll have to get there early. Because after 8:00 pm, there is always a long line.
M: It’s that popular?
W: It sure is.
M: Ok, ok. We are there tonight. So what does it cost?
W: One dollar buys 15 minutes of computer time. This talk isn’t cheap.
M: I don't know. I’ll feel funny talking through a computer.
W: Remember, that’s how I met Bill. I guarantee you can talk to girls who would never talk to you if they saw your face.
M: What's that supposed to mean?
W: Look in the mirror, man.
