We have information!

 

This whole misadventure reminds me of camping.   I have a camper, and those
things have a shower of sorts, but it isn't like the real thing.  The water
just kind of dribbles out, just a little, no pressure, not really very warm,
just a trickle of water.  So after a three-week camping trip, one comes
home, not even particularly dirty since we did have a shower of sorts the
whole time, but often I will stand under the real shower for an extended
time, just because it feels so good.  

 

I was without an information pipe for five long days.  There are alternative
information sources, such as the radio and those things, what you call them,
newspapers I think they are called.  But this "radio" and "newspapers" are
analogous to a camper "shower," clearly not equivalent to the real thing.  I
wasn't even really without the internet long enough to get really stupid,
but it sure feels that way.  Now I have my top 30 IQ points back.  Now I am
just standing under the information stream, letting the nice hot showers of
abundant information flow all over me, and aaaaahhhhh it feels sooooo
gooooood.
