I watched (or rather, listened to) a TED talk yesterday, that really
freaked me out.

It was a guy talking about the effects of porn, upon the brain.
Especially upon the pre-frontal cortex - the thinkiest part.

damn.  It all makes sense now.

How can people not see the vacuousness of their lives and their
culture?  We've become degraded.  Sent back.  The opposite of
advanced, as a species.  It's a terribly depressing thought.
Especially personally speaking, as one of the co-inventors (with Al
Gore) of the internet.  We had such high hopes, but alas... twas not
to be.   I remember Scott mentioning in a board meeting that like, 85%
of the bandwidth of our local ISP was headed to porn sites, and I knew
that my dreams of community uprising were ludicrous, un-pragmatic.
And I despaired.  I still do, actually.

oh well.
