Proposed TT comment - Oct 9, 2014

"Mixed in with fun threads like "Who still has a landline?" this place is way more fun."

We do need more relevant questions:

  • Who still uses Facebook?
  • Who still has cable/satellite TV?
  • Who still uses a printer?
  • Who still reads printed newspapers?

I can answer "Not me" to all those questions, but each year, I expand our backyard garden to grow more produce. It's confusing.

Why embrace new technologies and new cultural changes while at the same time engage in obviously ancient rituals like growing a garden, brewing beer, and baking naturally-leavened bread?

Instead of scratching a recipe on paper or on a stone wall like the ancient Egyptians, I store it in a homemade content management system. And when it's time to make bread, I follow the procedure by reading the web page on my iPhone.

I like the bits and bytes of the digital world and the wild yeast microorganisms used to make beer and bread.
