Thought of The Day - Jan 13, 2009

Technology has made it nearly impossible for Americans to "live off of the land." Most people here would not know what to do without a cell phone or a microwave. By most people's standards, the more technologically advanced a country is, the "better off" they are. People don't think of Australia's bushmen as advanced, but if there was a catastrophe that wiped out electricity, who would be more likely to survive? A bushman or someone like Donald Trump? My bet is on the bushman ;)
