Gary: Clare, I just picked up something at "Tech Town"! Clare: What'd you get? A Tivo? An iPhone? Gary: An e-book reader! So we can read electronic books! Clare: Dad, when are you going to understand?! The whole point of technology is so we don't have to read!
I hate the way people use the word “technology” these days. Do they even consider that automobiles, lawnmowers, and yes, even hammers are technology? Heck, even the food we eat is almost ALL technology. Even the 100% organic, all natural, vegan, gluten-free, and GMO-free foods. VERY little that we use today is not technology. Perhaps what they mean to say is “the latest technology,” though even that is somewhat vague.
