The flip side of home working

I can totally empathize with this:

It's not just a matter of feeling lonely: all kinds of emotions depend on regular, face-to-face human interaction, and you run a serious risk of becoming unproductive, uninspired, and even depressed without it. -- [From "Working from Home: Why It Sucks" by Shimon Rura]

I don't want to be chained to a desk in an office, but working from home all the time isn't working for me either. There has to be some kind of middle ground.

Alan, Stu, and I tend to get together one afternoon a week and that's been a big help but it's not really enough.
