Well Birds - people behind computers are robots putting in knowledge of
others.

No need for use of intelligence or original thoughtsanyone can sit
down and use a calculator or computer - but can someone sit down and add
up figures in their heads?

Empty heads behind computers - looking up reference books and using
words of others?  Make you look smart on computer in print out but boy,
when some of these people try to sit down and write a letter their
ignorance really shows?

People sitting behind computers all day are also taller when sitting
down than standing - for they are also sitting on brains?

Glad I have a web tv which someone bought me just for fun.

Oh Computers look so smart quoting Shakespeare, bible, Bryant,
Longfellow, Hazlitt, Fitzgerald, etc, etc, etc.

But did you ever break behind the computer image and see the typist
sitting behind the lightduhh, duhh and more duhh.

Loaded with knowledge in form of encyclopedians but empty headed; using
words of others to look oh so smart, when collective iq averages
70..

Like who writes the speeches as compares to the guy who delivers same -
and takes the bow.

I wrote a speech once that was delivered over Stone Mountain in Georgia;
I was quoted by Harry Truman way back, at a labor day celebration where
I said " no matter what, the worst democrat is better than the best
republican" and being in my teens and in college, I really meant
that..I have been reported on Paul Harvey twice, made 60 minutes
once and my words went all over the world..oh but fame, sometimes
fleeting - but those were words that I wrote - and have been published
once in FATE Magazine when only 16 - a magazine my mother loved to read.

Flattered that Paul Harvey chose my words and actions twice on his
show..and 60 Minutes, well I was a little shocked they gave me so
much time and had to lay low for a week...

Such is the life of a person with original thoughts as compared to the
poor computer operator, the glorified typist, who uses the words of
others, with no original thoughts of their own.

This is what you call, empty headed morons.

Except for you. You put in no knowledge at all. Just endless brain farts.

Computer-mad generation has a memory crash

Cherry Norton and Adam Nathan

GROWING numbers of people in their twenties and thirties are suffering from severe 
memory loss
because of increasing reliance on computer technology, according to new research.

Sufferers complain they are unable to recall names, written words or appointments, and 
in some cases
have had to give up their jobs.

Doctors are blaming computer technology, electronic organisers and automatic car 
navigation systems.
They claim these gadgets lead to diminished use of the brain to work out problems and 
inflict
"information overload" that makes it difficult to distinguish between important and 
unimportant
facts.

A preliminary study of 150 people aged 20 to 35 has shown that more than one in 10 are 
suffering
from severe problems with their memory. Researchers from Hokkaido University's school 
of medicine in
Japan said the memory dysfunction among the young required further investigation.

"They're losing the ability to remember new things, to pull out old data or to 
distinguish between
important and unimportant information. It's a type of brain dysfunction," said 
Toshiyuki Sawaguchi,
the university's professor of neurobiology. "Young people today are becoming stupid."

One high-flying 28-year-old salesman treated by Dr Sawaguchi was forced to give up his 
job when he
found himself forgetting where he was going, who he was supposed to be seeing or, when 
he finally
got there, what he was selling.

Although no formal studies have been undertaken in Britain, experts are increasingly 
recognising the
problem. Professor Pam Briggs of Northumbria University, who recently chaired a British
Psychological Society symposium on the effects of technology, said: "I think increased 
use of the
internet and computer technology is starting to have an effect. Everyday memory might 
be at threat
if you are using the computer as a kind of external memory."

Dr Takashi Tsukiyama, who runs a private clinic in Tokyo, said he had seen an increase 
in severe
memory problems. "In the past two years, more people in their twenties and thirties 
have presented
themselves with memory impairment," he said.

One sales assistant aged 28 said she suddenly found herself unable to recall written 
words and was
dismissed from her job. "Ageing affects the brain's hardware, but errors may occur in 
the brain's
'software' that have nothing to do with age but are related to someone's lifestyle, 
such as not
using your brain enough," said Tsukiyama.

Dr David Cantor, director of the Psychological Services Institute in Atlanta, Georgia, 
who has
treated patients for memory and attention problems for more than 20 years, said: "Many 
experts
believe information overload is making it difficult for some people to absorb new 
information, as
they have reached a limit of what they can store in their brains. These people forget 
things because
they were too distracted to absorb them in the first place."
