I knew an older woman who didn't like computers and would have been quite happy for them to be done away with. Of course if that happened her social security checks would have been several months late in arriving I imagine, but she didn't think of that. Like it or not modern tech. is here to stay and we've reached a point where we can't get along without it. And all of it traces back to the humble plow. The plow made it possible to plant more food so the population could rise and people had time to do other things besides trying to keep themselves fed and clothed.
