And if you're a lonely single person, you're going to turn on your computer and log into websites

0:21.7

like MoCo Space or Lava Life. You make a profile, add some pictures, and then you start clicking.

You hope to find someone nearby. If you're in the area near Apple Creek, Ohio, you don't

expect to see an Amish person on these websites. They're online after all, and the Amish don't
