Conjectures of a Recovering dilettante –while traveling the road to #Utopia– we stopped needing other people.

 
Since the beginning of human existence, the need for community was essential for survival.  We had to deal with each other personally in order to survive.  It was that simple, and like it or not, we engaged the process. 

Then came the age of technology, and suddenly we can do anything via the machine.  (Note: the word machine, not phone or computer, is appropriate.) We no longer have to be bothered with "face to face: contact. 

Can you imagine what this means to future generations?  If you cannot, you had better start thinking about it.  More later…….
