Okay, I might be stupid,...Submitted by John Trosko (not verified) on November 25, 2005 - 10:18am.
Okay, I might be stupid, but I've been listening to the NPR audios for a long time now-- are they known as Podcasts? I am impressed at Paul for going back to basics. But peeps need to be able to control themselves. If the Internet is distracting, don't log on. You'll have to evolve your thoughts to survive in this world. So that means adapting to technology. I used to be one of those "people" who made fun of cel phone users, until I discovered it myself and have become what I made fun of. But now, my relationships are better, and I stay in touch with my older parents who live far away from Los Angeles. But someones my pocket phone gets overwealming. And I turn it off knowing it will always be there. But doing what Paul Ford did? I don't think not! I did a post of this on my site-- http://organizingla.blogs.com/organizingla_blog/2005/11/getting_back_to.html » POSTED IN:
