Life and Living

Television screen, computer screen, cell phone screen too: all are capable of hypnotizing you. Bells and whistles going on in your head; your mind is active, but your body is dead. What is all this technology going to do for you? Will it enhance your reality or take it away from you? Will you know tomorrow what you don't know today? The plan seems to be to replace the human being, anyway. This will be a place where technology does almost everything human- -with robot's names. Then, when most human beings are no longer necessary, welcome to the human race's mass cemetery. A play-land for the rich and a hell-hole for poor, who may not be necessary or needed anymore. Today, it sounds like a fairy-tale; tomorrow, it could be a live and living technological hell. Well, well, well.
