X-Message-Number: 18333 From: "Mark Plus" <> Subject: "Of Trek and TiVo" Date: Fri, 11 Jan 2002 09:03:24 -0800 A rather humorous view of the wrong-headed sorts of technological "progress" we've been seeing lately: http://www.techreview.com/articles/jenkins0102.asp While I could see the value of having a cellphone for emergencies, for example, in general I've been on the receiving end of enough garbled cellphone calls to conclude that I really have no use for one in my daily life, even if they did work in Wrightwood's Swarthout Valley where I live. In fact, I'd be willing to trade a lot of the current meretricious gadgetry in exchange for genuine progress in reversible neuropreservation and ant-aging treatments.
