In some ways technology is making people less intelligent by the day, IMHO.
We talked about this at work today in the lunchroom. I think if you drive into a river just because a computer voice tells you to, you shouldn't be driving. In fact, you probably shouldn't be reproducing, either. My coworker swears it's a conspiracy to weed the stupid from among us. "Turn right here...collision detected...doors locked...self destruct initiated..." It was a hilarious conversation that left us with aching bellies from laughing so hard. My makeup needed a serious retouch.

end threadjack.
