But get there any way you can, including asking a nearby friend to messenger something for you. We received a hand written postcard from the University of Chicago a few weeks ago. That caused us a moment of humility. Here we had been complaining that Jeanne's net access was down. And a post card came.
High tech is wonderful.
Low tech takes more time, can be frustrating, and makes you wish you had high tech, but it can get you access. And access is what counts. Besides, when everything goes down, you'd better know and have kept the resources to put stuff back together, by counting on your digits if necessary. Over the course of the Spring semester 1996, we changed the way we talk about this book. But sometimes when the prayer isn't answered immediately, there are after all many crises in the world, we have to learn alternate access.
