In the lifetime of most of us on this board. huge technological advances have been made. Do you think these advances have made our lives better?

Personally, it is a mixed bag.

Medical Technology is fantastic. Advances have been huge throughout my lifetime. Birth mortality is way down. People are living longer and the quality of the later years has improved.

The internet is great. Information that would take hours in a library to find is at your fingertips in minutes or seconds.

Communication, cell phones, e-mail, text messaging, all bad things. People are not social as they once were. People do not disconnect. It is an addiction and will only get worse.

Automobiles have made great strides in safety and longevity, though they lack style and all look alike these days.

What do you think?
