I'm glad we had that at least, because we know all we need to do to return to it is put down our phones and wait for the magic. My son, when he visited at Christmas, seemed to always have his phone out and he's 28. I find it irritating - it says to me that his phone is better company that hismother, which just can't be true, can it? My sister and brother in law just had a week in Hong Kong and they said everyone was utterly glue to their phones the whole time. How do people experience the real world at all? Daydreaming is a lost art, it seems. Yet you and I clearly know how much potential can be in staring into space. I can recall so many train journeys just watching the world go by - if I had three wishes, I'd seriously consider taking away our mini computer nannys for THE ENTIRE WORLD. If you want the internet, go home, get on the computer. You have an hour per day. The rest of the time, live, create, dream. Of course, I know I'm being totally idealistic here...
