Original Message We've all become so accustomed to putting our dependence on external providers that we've lost the ability to question and learn through experience. Push-button technology has turned us into an army of non-thinking cyphers.

We spend so much of our time worrying about work and money and bills that we seem to have lost sight of the bigger picture. Who has time to think about anything when we're constantly bombarded with the everyday distractions of modern life.

We've evolved into nothing more than passive consumers for the latest market-led cutting-edge technlogical gizmo.

Why settle for a dual-core PC when you have a quad-core? Why settle for a 5mp camera when you can get 10mp?
Why settle for a PSP2 when they've released a PSP3?

There's a never a time for pause. For reflection. For thought.

Is this all there is?
