if you have any doubts about "how useful the internet is...?" just visit a part of the world where the last few strains of a vanishing language or plant or people or music or tadpole or folktale will now at least be remembered a little, if not revived and saved. iPhones are Ghost Dancing on the Plain of Jars. Horrible as it might seem; it's our only hope for so many things in this one universe that need to be connected because they really are connected, and despite your effacement, you know it, Jim. The technological leap was to the WORD; wherever that leap is taking us the internet is not standing in the way. Build thee more stately MINECRAFT O my soul.
