Oy I visit several times each day and I have two accounts now LOL.
Yeah I love the cats too. I wonder if you have seen my cat video?

Well I don't consider it a replacement but I have to admit I watch much less

It actually took me a while to figure that out, because to me,
the internet is this incredible worldwide library. I feel like
since the popularization of the internet that I have increased
my knowledge of the world by 3.
