It's that time of the month again...

Hmmmm.... I see by the old calendar on the wall that it's time for my monthly bit of Blog Wisdom.

Try this one: I used to think the Internet was kind of cool. Then I thought it was amazing. Then I thought it was a bit annoying. Then I thought it was possibly dangerous. Then I became convinced that it was the worst thing that's ever happened to the human race (and considering humanity's past, that's quite an achievement).

I now believe that it's possible (maybe even probable) that the Internet - or some mutation of it - will eventually lead to the end of human civilization as we know it. And possibly the actual destruction of the planet, i.e. a series of events so catastrophic that the Earth is sent spinning off its axis and out of orbit rendering it a dead rock or a burning cinder.

Well, that's my say for November.

Go back to your coffee.

Oh, and Happy Thanksgiving!
