<<If the luddites had won, we'd all be sitting in the dark writing on paper.>> i am forever grateful for the invention of the flush toilet:)<greatest invention in history>. So i am not a Luddite. But i am anti-evangelistic technics that overwhelmingly overhyped the money making capacity of their inventiveness. And why did they hype and hype, because they saw the get quick Circus was in town, that is why. Don't romanticize these fellows. Hell the best of the lot , the REAL THING, were possibly the founders of Google, who when people were knocking down their door to go to an IPO. They said NO! They said they would be EMBARASSED to IPO a company that isn't making any money, it's a matter of HONOR. Now that's a word, that's a word. HONOR. My hat's off in deep respect to the founders of Google. Max p.s. We were a long way from the days of Gates and Allen in their garage or Hewlett in his garage, these last 7 years.
