It does raise an interesting issue. I think we're becoming crippled by our technology. What would happen to you if your e-mail and cell phone and GPS went away? Would you be able to function? I'm not talking about getting your work done at work (some of that does require specific technological tools) - I'm talking about the everyday mundane kind of stuff. Could you call your friends? Find a place you're going? Get money from a bank?
Some things to think about! :)
