Anybody listening?
Me, with my own blog? Hard to believe. But where else to articulate the opinions that no flesh-and-blood person wants to listen to?

Hi! My lovely wife just pointed me towards your blog.
I'm still trying to figure out what a blog is, let alone a luddite.
I'm listening, I'm glad you're blogging.
Looks like you've kicked off to a good start. I look forward to seeing more of your blog.
What in blog's name is a luddite?
From Merriam-Webster.com
Main Entry: Ludd·ite
Function: noun
Etymology: perhaps from Ned Ludd, 18th century Leicestershire workman who destroyed machinery
: one of a group of early 19th century English workmen destroying laborsaving machinery as a protest; broadly : one who is opposed to especially technological change

Hey Alec - it' s cool to see what you're up to.
Luddite, huh? So we've gone from "Smash the State" to "Smash the Cell Phone"? Yes, I believe we have. In fact, just today I was in the office of my Dean, and in the middle of his conference table there was a cell phone scrunched between the jaws of a channel lock wrench. He said that it was meant as a reminder that people meeting with him had better turn off their cell phones first....
We now take you back to our regularly scheduled programming, circa 1975.....
but what exactly was that hierarchy of superb experiences? There was cosmic, orgasmic, mind-blowing, and, um, peachy-keen. Surely there were more, and what, for chrissakes, was the order?
Hey Alec! Long time no see - about 30 years. Great to see all that you are doing. I'm in Needham almost every weekend. Maybe we can catch up over coffee.
