And do your own cross checking off platform. <br/><br/>OTOH, I have a graduate library card and a web browser. Of the two the information content of the former is an order of magnitude greater. But the latter is point and click. So the latter gets 'quick and dirty' while the former gets 'deep and pretty.' I'm just sayin.' Keep custody of your own imagination, though, don't let the technology decide (because there's a greedhead homunculus in there somewhere).

OTOH, I have a graduate library card and a web browser. Of the two the information content of the former is an order of magnitude greater. But the latter is point and click. So the latter gets ‘quick and dirty’ while the former gets ‘deep and pretty.’ I’m just sayin.’ Keep custody of your own imagination, though, don’t let the technology decide (because there’s a greedhead homunculus in there somewhere).

We really have no idea what's done to data before we see it, or who's buying/paying. Very Orwellian, 1984ish, and Vonnegutian. Outrage indeed.
