    Not really...it just looks like it has. Technology is a funny thing; 
there are two things that have never changed: The choices we make, and 
the way we treat people.  From the Abacus to the atom bomb, we're all 
still doing the same kinds of things, it's just nowdays we're spending 
less time doing laundry.

    Einstein addressed Congress in the wayback; he said "Modern man sees 
himself as a higher being of sorts with his new technology, over the 
primitive man.  But the primitive man knows how to make his *own* bow 
and arrow; the rest of us can make no such claim." (Paraphrased)

    In the issue above, there's abstinence, or there's a 99% chance- 
never 100, kinda like in germ-killing. Only one course of action 
prevents problems with this issue; isn't that odd?
