Back in HS I started a short story. I was reading alot of cyber punk at the time and was inspired by William Gibson among others, he wrote heavily about cybernetic implants and what not. In my short story there were tea houses that you could go to and enjoy a japanese/chinese tea ceremony, the catch was that all implants and cybernetics had to be removed or turned off at the door. I wonder if I still have that somewhere, its 20 years later and alot of Gibson's prediction have or are becoming reality.....

Recently I went to a leadership training session and the instructor
advised all to occasionally shut-off all electronics (radio/TV/cell
phone/computer/ipod) and 'fast' from all media for two or three days.
That struck me as a good thing to do at least once a year or so, and
preferably for a two-week period or longer...

You have nothing to fear but fear it self.
