If we invest our relaxation into the computer as well, we will soon annihilate the theatre, claiming that the same sensation can be achieved from one's own personal computer. The pleasant task of walking up and down the aisles at the grocery store will be replaced with a computer generated shopping list connected directly with the store. Children have already begun to turn from roller skating through the parks and jump roping in the streets to playing computer games and surfing the web. Today's society has vested much into the computer. Just because the computer is down, the power is out, or one cannot cover the expenses of a computer, life should not come to a hault.
Computers can be highly useful in simplifying one's life.
However, when they start seeping into the simple pleasures, like the joy of walking through the library where books are shelved farther than the eye can see, filled with the exotic stories of pirate's or the romantic tale of lover's, then computers have gone too far.
