One last word on this topic--it's true that we've evolved into a visual society
relying on our sense of sight as the primary means of acquiring information--but
the price has been great--since many have come to accept what they see on their
screens as reality---when, in fact, it isn't that at all. If you touch a
screen, you'll know it immediately!
Best wishes,
