Forgetful Me

It’s Saturday Friday was a busy one (well not really) but I didn’t post anything. I was thinking about how technology will be a survival issue. Not just the dependence on it but also the willingness to understand it. I find myself in an odd place. I don’t like cellular phones or PDAs or anything like that but I realize that if I am going to be alive for another 60 years or so chances are these pieces of technology will be the standard. Everyone will need to use and understand how to operate these things in order to function in our Post-Modern Post Industrial service sector world. I wonder how in terms of evolution and such this technological revolution will weed out those foolish illiterates who are too stubborn and too bother to learn this stuff and “get with the program”? Will those of us who are young and out of the loop simply be incapable of functioning under this new world order?
