As I started this paper, I peeked at my peers idea's, the format, and etc., and I noticed that most everyone had a "qualified statement" format. The first paper that I did in this class was a qualified statement and it seems that I could've done better by actually deciding to take a stand, one way or the other.
Which leads me to; Technology is a good thing. (Besides "Big Brotherism"- if that is a term, I don't know but it is now!) Just think where we would be without it!
If you can't tell by now, I am kind of confused. I want to touch on the short stories that we all have read, to revert to special topics of technology.
On the short story "The Jaunt".... (I watch alot of SciFi.) "Stargate Atlantis" and "Stargate SG1" could possibly be happening now! That would be so cool. It beats the heck out of riding a couch to Earth or Mars, I think. Of course this is only my opinion. It would also give us an option in case our world blew up due to pollution. Which I pray never happens.
I often worry about my grandchildren, and their grandchildren. Should we stop having children? That's what "Grandma Doughty" use to say.
On the short story "The Woman In The Room"...I realize that this isn't as technical as the other short stories, but it does raise the question, "what would you do?" For instance if my mother (who has long since been gone), needed my assistance in dying I would probably leave her the pills, but I wouldn't feed them to her.
When I lived in the country, we all used to shoot our suffering animals because there were no Veterinarian's that were less than 70 miles away. By the time you got the cow, horse or which ever animal was suffering, loaded up they would be dead. Don't get me wrong, I don't mean to sound like I'm comparing my mother to a cow, but animals are living beings. In fact, I trust animals more than I do most people.
Obviously there are countless idea's on technology, that we can all "ponder upon", so I will be thinking more on these idea's, and all of the idea's that yawl have posted, will give me information to further my paper.

I really like how you dicided to stick with one side.I think that is great. I agree that technology is more beneficial. I think that technology has really benefited us in the communication department. We can basically get in touch with anyone in many different way. Its really amazing. I think with out the development of technology we would not be able to survive. I think that you have great ideas and good luck on your paper.
I completely agree and I also liked how you only leaned to one side. It is such a broad term so leaning one way is good!!
