I mean, ...My Gods, people. We're all sitting, *literally* with the greatest store of human knowledge ever compiled at *our *fingertips* and this is what we come up with?
This?
Favorite quote of mine, from any book. Heinlein, of all people, at that:
"I think you have missed the most alarming symptom of all. This one I shall tell you. But go back and search for it. Examine it. Sick cultures show a complex of symptoms as you have named... But a *dying* culture invariably exhibits personal rudeness. Bad manners. Lack of consideration for others in minor matters. A loss of politeness, of gentle manners, is more significant than a riot. "
This is *us?* With all this?
Feh.
