[QUOTE="exangel, post: 4076278, member: 251693"] *Blink* The world turned just fine without all that stuff... and being closely involved with the internet since the very explosion of the Web itself... I sincerely *know* that just because there would be a lot of casualties (both literally and figuratively speaking) without those things you mention, it doesn't mean that technology is something that has eliminated mankind's capability to operate on the lesser pre-existing forms. In fact-- It would be easier in the present day to communicate without the internet because world languages have been homogenizing over the past 100 and especially 30-50 years, meaning that there are fewer spoken/written languages present in the human race now than before the instant communication forms that have been available since before you were even conceived. If [i]merely[/i] disintegrating the internet was on the table, but we still had (LANDLINE) phones and (NON-JET) transportation, it would be a major hurdle only for the FIRST WORLD population to adjust (the wealthy would be able to afford a massive spike in postage & phone costs, but then there would be a massive demand for postal and phone employees to balance THAT out..) but the communication tool, though seen as integral to turning the moment-to-moment events of people of the "entire world", isn't even accessible to (or used by) [i]most of it[/i] even at this time ANYWAY. for second and third-worlders, they would return to forms they used before mainstream access to the internet [b]even more easily.[/b] [/QUOTE]

I rather enjoy a life of taking it easy. I haven't reached that life yet though.
