“If we're ever going to get the world back on a natural footing, back in tune with natural rhythyms, if we're going to nurture the Earth and protect it and have fun with it and learn from it - which is what mothers do with their children - then we've got to put technology (an aggressive masculine system) in its proper place, which is that of a tool to be used sparingly, joyfully, gently and only in the fullest cooperation with nature. Nature must govern technology, not the other way around.” IfsWorldWayChildrenEarthUsedMotherFunNaturalTechnologyProtectToolsHaving FunTunesCooperationAggressiveNurtureMasculineCowgirls Author:Tom Robbins
“People over the age of thirty were born before the digital revolution really started. We've learned to use digital technology-laptops, cameras, personal digital assistants, the Internet-as adults, and it has been something like learning a foreign language. Most of us are okay, and some are even expert. We do e-mails and PowerPoint, surf the Internet, and feel we're at the cutting edge. But compared to most people under thirty and certainly under twenty, we are fumbling amateurs. People of that age were born after the digital revolution began. They learned to speak digital as a mother tongue.” PeopleFeelsHas BeensUseAgeMotherSpeakLanguageBornTechnologyCuttingRevolutionInternetAdultsOkayTwentiesCamerasEdgesTongueThirtyExpertsDigitalMailAssistantsSurfLaptopsForeign LanguageCutting EdgeMother TongueDigital TechnologyPowerpointDigital Revolution Author:Ken Robinson
