Stifled by technology? Take a walk!
In a recent post on a Yahoo!Group, the author bemoaned that he feels stifled by technology.
Somehow he missed the irony that he was choosing to use computer technology to bitch about it. He wants to return to the wild, yet he is unable to do without computers. I wonder about lower tech items, like indoor plumbing, microwave ovens, gas/electric ranges, electric lights… Somehow his idea of the ‘noble savage’ appears to be a ‘savage’ with all the advantages of technology as it exists to this point.
People who sincerely hate technology should unplug their computers and throw them out so the rest of us don’t have to read their claims to hate that which they voluntarily interface with to preach their dissatisfaction to the world.
