    Technology and Society

    Is anyone like me and think how the fk did it all
    change so fast?

    Everyone spending more time starring into their
    phone than doing anything else?

    Internet,gps,facebook,texting,skyping,interact and on
    and on and on.

    I always think of the story of the chinese general
    when asked about the effects of the first world war
    his response was"don't know,to soon to tell".

    Anybody have an opinion on where we are heading?

    Anybody read any good authors on the subject?

    Be prepared to sleep with your light on ...
    Disregard religion and think technology...
    Read in 1981 - freaked me out then

      Well... CP....

      There is plan 'A'.... "Do the best you can with what you
      have"...

      And then when someone says... "Time is up"... well
      that is the time when plan 'B' kicks in.

      One Appointment not one of us will miss... is death.

      There are endless versions of this book on the
      internet... it is the best seller of all time! IF you avoid
      reading this book... you avoid it at your peril. The
      Chapter written by John... is usually the best
      introduction to it.

      Cheers!

        Glen Beck's Agenda 21 is a rather interesting
        fictional futuristic peek. But read it before one
        angry finger in some unknown hot tent
        disintegrates Shand on a forty below nIght and a
        half million Saskies freeze in the dark . Pars

          Every one of the technologies has an off switch. You could try using them to quieten your life, but then your response would be to *f*off.

          The one thing everyone should do is to send a cheer out to Tom. I think he has been frequenting too many Alberta-British pubs.

            ....a bunch of social misfits who live
            in a fantasy world that have no face to
            face interpersonal skills, can barely
            spell and don't like work. They will be
            fine until what the previous generations
            accumulated and provided for them runs
            out.
            Who here wouldn't like to get off the
            technology treadmill and get back to the
            basics/simpler times? I can make
            technology part of my life but I don't
            want it to rule it. I guess I have to
            realize when it stops adding value to
            aspects of my life, it is no longer
            needed.

              Tucker: If you like to remain as ignorant as you seem then keep your closed mind sealed tight.

              Dr. Suzuki is not a dummy as you seem to think. He has some good advice for Canadians regarding the paving over of our good farm land.

                whine.

                    Farmaholic,

                    At this point we can feed ourselves... and don't have
                    drones targeting our country. We can still speak freely
                    about our faith.

                    Therefore other than defending my 'neighbour' who is
                    defenceless... my political projects have diminished.

                    Cheers

                      I'll check that book out,notice the price tag at the
                      top,lol.

                      Checking,its not really about one person,its about the
                      whole herd of humans going through a huge
                      paradigm shift in a short amount of time.

                      Maybe its not worth thinking about or maybe there
                      are serious consequences,or benefits,i don't know.
