1. Our information devices have the power
to isolate us or unite us.

While we must be cautious not to let our "entertainments" interfere with our personal relationships, I think the power to unite us and give us a wider view of our world is amazing and near miraculous.

This will be real power to ALL people EVERYWHERE. We all stand like Egyptians today! May we all stand and remove the yolk of oppressionand tyranny. Let us live free and united, as one whole humanity.
