Tech can enable ways to solve real problems, it isn't a solution in itself. When there is no will to address genuine issues, doing which may detract from the potential to constantly leach running sores, then one gets only showcase objects, quickly tarnished and forgotten. Money spent, of course. No bridge, needless to say. -- Vickram http://communicall.wordpress.com
