Voting Is The Next-to-last Refuge

Reading Is The Scourge Of Childhood Because, In A Sense, It Creates Adulthood.

It Is Inescapable That Every Culture Must Negotiate With Technology, Whether It Does So Intelligently Or Not. A Bargain Is Struck In Which Technology Giveth And Technology Taketh Away.

Americans No Longer Talk To Each Other, They Entertain Each Other. They Do Not Exchange Ideas, They Exchange Images. They Do Not Argue With Propositions; They Argue With Good Looks, Celebrities And Comercials.

The Written Word Endures, The Spoken Word Disappears

But It Is Much Later In The Game Now, And Ignorance Of The Score Is Inexcusable. To Be Unaware That A Technology Comes Equipped With A Program For Social Change, To Maintain That Technology Is Neutral, To Make The Assumption That Technology Is Always A Friend To Culture Is, At This Late Hour, Stupidity Plain And Simple.
