Weekends go so fast...

Although...so do the weeks. It is hard to believe that we are at the end of October. I never feel more humble these days than when I am trying to Tame Technology. Technology has become a living entity to me over these last few weeks. Although I knew it was a vast subject, I had a rather naive understanding of just how V A S T. Believe it or not, I can make connections to enhance my understanding of technology by thinking of Lake Superior.

Lake Superior is huge. It is so vast that one can look in each direction: N S E W and not see shore. It is deep and dark and cold. Lake Superior changes its personality many times during one hour, one day and one week. IT can be calm and peaceful, and yet a wind can come up on very short notice, usually as clouds blacken overhead, and the Lake can come to life as a killer. The shore can be lined with beach and/or trees of leaf and branch, and yet be rocky and dangerous and impossible to approach in other places. Some parts of Lake Superior have been tamed by humans - entire sections will never be fully demystified.

To Technology - substitute the word Technology each time you read Lake Superior above.
