Perhaps these neo-Luddites, who would rather take a leisurely Sunday drive rather than race with the cyberspeeders on the superhighway, will be smashing screens, hard drives and middle management heads in every office and home in an attempt to slow the pace on this dehumanization. And, like the 19th-century Luddites, they'll fail. And they'll become computer literate as a result. When the unemployed textile workers smashed the steam looms and torched the mills, they were attacking only the symbols of advancement, not the thing itself. The idea, once it is invented, can never be destroyed.
Technology can only move forward.
