>I wonder what the long term consequences of it controlling so much of our lives will beThat's the thing, it's up to us to control it. And I don't think you can do that by ignoring it either. It seems like you see the things I do as unnessecary in a sense. Well maybe you're right but I do try to be aware of the things I'm using and what exactly they do. And this is how we can control it: in the same way that I know you try to be conscious of the foods you put in your body we should also be consious of the machines around us. Just think of them like you would your flowers
>I thought they were a foreign factionThey are in a sense. Foreign to the capital that is. Much of them had probably never left their localities before they marched on kabul and so many of the issues now being raised - women's rights, a collapsing economy and all that - are caused by the lack of understanding between these two groups, the city dwellers and the armed bumpkins at their doors.
What image? And did you actually read his tantrum? Why...?
