Bob, >>>> Frankly, I don't understand your beef, unless you're just another member of the "everything man made is evil" crowd, or the "I want to control everyone to the point where they only want what I say they should want" crowd.<<< No beef, just trying to suggest that it's consumer/marketing idealism were discussing, not practical needs. Why would something like this amuse you? Why does the ability of having instant imaging on your cell phone give you a kick? If we go along with what you ask, then at some point in the future we are going to run into a wall, and then we may be forced to accept the "morality committee" telling us what and when we can have something. They do this in China now when it comes to having children. I don't know who picked the village grandmother, I have no idea who would make those decisions. But if we wait till then, we will be forced to accept what is handed to us forced upon us by the current administration at the time. >>>You're somewhat judge mental, aren't you? Next time I see something that looks like it might amuse me, I'll be sure to check with you first to see if it's a "valid" thing.<<<< No, I'm not. I don't care if your throw your money at the latest technology, merely trying to suggest we could be much smarter. Your question ignores reality. It's one of those arguments that may be given by someone who got the hand caught in the cookie jar. "Why can't I have another cookie?" Do you honestly feel you should have anything your heart desires, just because you want it? If that were truly the case, then why do 6 million daily (and counting) users of marajuana still have to break the law? Do you argue for them as well? >>>Not!<<<< Of course not.
