The idea that the use of computer technology, e-mail communication, and
the emphasis on doing everything faster, faster, more, more has affected
the way we communicate with each other--both on-line and in person--has
been on my mind, too. Are we losing our humanity as we merge with
machines to do everything faster, better(?), more efficiently? Do we
need to slow down and relearn how to interact with each other? Where
will this fast-paced whirlwind take us?
