I read somewhere the other day that there are something like 13,000 families with more personal wealth than 20 million families in this country. Sounds about right. Spoke to a client the other day, a good friend as well as a client, and I said that I thought that computer technology had been a "net negative" on society. He was surprised I said that, even more that I meant it. When he said, "But look at the wealth that has been generated by widespread use of computer technology," I said, "Yes. It's been a good ride - for the winners. But suppose you aren't one of the winners. Are you better off because a Fanuc robot can put you and two of your peers out of work forever?" Imo, the embrace of computer technology will hasten a revolution. A society cannot withstand all the "excess labor" that automation generates, nor can it long tolerate the polarization, extreme polarization, that arises. bcnu after the bloodshed (I hope), Mikem

It's a Natural Law, yet! Entropy / Chaos Rulez. 15\ufffd of iron powder can ruin a $M machine; mobs can topple even.. An imbedded Church hierarchy - when you fuck with their kiddies behind the altar. (And a $300K Maybeck sedan burns as well as a Ford Escort - less'n ya keep it in the living room of yer mansion.?. then it goes with the mansion ;-) Ashton dissolution of a fucked culture is at least - Exciting! sometimes.
