Nice poem. But I'm wondering if our skill in physics is only fancy math that is getting us nowhere. Fine and funny imagery.

Thank you so much David, technology seems like a Frankensteinian monster sometimes, taking us to a future that is beyond our control. On the other hand, some quarters believe it may solve our problems. The moral of this silly poem is the old idea (from 1960!) that TV turns us into zombies.
