Luddites unite





Of course, learning can come in all forms - print, audio, digital...so why does it make me so wistful to see the disappearance of musical instruments and books? Because I'm convinced that there is something we lose when we give up the tactile interaction with the printed page, the pen, the musical instrument. Our brains simply cognate differently - and dare I say, less?

Just saw "Idiocracy" - sure hope this is not foreboding!
