Neil Postman Video Response

     Yes, it is ironic that we are watching this, on youtube, on a computer, on another website.  Right now I am typing this next to fifteen other computers.  And, there is a cell phone (MLD) in my pocket.  The quote: "Try to hear a little song, read a good poem, see a fine picture, and if possible, speak a few reasonable words."  jumps out at me as the point of what he is saying. 
     A similar idea between the book and the video is that we are becoming slaves to our technology.  An idea that we exist to serve it, not the other way around.  On page in Amusing Ourselves to Death  "We are people on the verge of amusing ourselves to death". We are a changing era.  This era is that of cloning and of facebook.  As quoted in the video "That because we do live in a technological age, we have some special problems."  Postman makes the point that although we are advancing technologically, we are not necessarily advancing as a whole.
