A small part of a larger conversation I had with myself.
...the past is important, I agree with you there, but to ignore modern advances, I ask is that fair? Next you will be telling me that you despise MP3's and that you question the necessity of Sky HD, that we should tune in the wireless to Radio 3, rather than download a podcast or play a CD...
...entertainment is everything, luxury is paramount that's why we consume over-stimulation in mass amounts. I hear your point old-timer and part of me agrees, but unless you have something that can rival my Blackberry, that can offer mankind amazing internet speeds, or can at least curb my habit of having my needs met instantly, I suggest you park your rear and take 2, plus 3...
...I rarely partake in modern trends, if I do its in the form of voyeurism, besides, a lot of these advances reek of pure hedonism, time saving? maybe, but its what we do with that excess time that concerns me...
...but is it necessary to be able to browse the web on your phone, can't your spam and junk mail not wait until you get home, must you be able to poke and tweet from wherever you roam? 2 plus 3 equals five, I'm impressed you knew that, rumour has it that your generation didn't master basic maths, maybe you calculated the answer on an iPhone app...
