The internet is a funny thing, yeah. Connects you to people you've never met and makes you feel close to them. I've also lost contact with many old friends - people I had seen every day. And still they rank so much lower than these two guys on the Quake Wiki :P

Yeah, we didn't really miss much in the 1980's - Atari, Commodore, NES... nothing particularly spectacular. And lots of nasty games too (I've been watching some AVGN videos lately, in order to learn more about these). The 1990's is where the industry "exploded" and the greatest advancements were made. In just one year there could be more technical progress than for the entire previous decade.

I can handle social events when I have to... but I wouldn't seek them out deliberately.

P.S. Home, sweet home!
