I don`t know what computers are doing to you but they have made me vastly more aware of what goes on in the world beyond the lame crap that the big news networks allow us to hear.Big media had a strangle hold on information before and now I can find out the truth about any subject I choose.Not just what they want me to see.
If you were implying that they are somehow making us dumber by making things easier than thats nonsense because we still have to read what we find and it has opened the door on cultures and people that before we could never have had access to.The only downside might be that Big Brother can use it to keep a better eye on us but so far they don`t seem to be able to use the information they already have access to.If those dipwads in Washington would pull their heads out of their butt and quit hiding info from each other and work together they might get somewhere.All they seem to be concerned about so far is how to keep or increase the money they are budgeted and protecting their image.If the gov`t in general put as much effort into finding and stopping terrorists and criminals as they seem to put into finding scapegoats they might get somewhere.
Hmmmm...seems like I may have gotten just a bit off topic.Well I feel better now that I got that off my chest at least.
