Your SS response was not only thoughtful, thorough, intelligent, but also prolific. As crafters and artists the breadth of our scope is often challenged and here you display just how deeply and evocatively we are moved and how wise our cognitive process is. All of our choices have cause and affect, as artists we are charged with seeing all sides of the prism and stretching our minds. The moral ethics of the future and technology are imperative discussions. thank you so very much for your post. It has become such a pleasure to come to your site.

Add the issue of third world development, and the issues become even more comlex. Do we, as Americans, have either the will or leaders with integrity and commitment to confront these issues? Thank you for writing so thoughtfully of technology and our future as a society. I've put Martin's book on my list. For even as I love to play with technology, I haven't thought as much about the "should we" aspects. And that's the personal level. Ensuring that people have access and skills adds another layer. Putting technolgoy into the context of our society's future digs deeper. Your reflections on this week’s prompt add depth to the discussion, well beyond poetry.

My husband, a professor of engineering, once developed a course called "Introduction to Professional Engineering", which examined many of the points that you cover. His course was essentially about the morality of the choices an engineer faces - in whom he or she works for, what that work does or does not do for the world. I will buy James Martin's book.

Whether to bring about a new religious ruler or because humans deserve extinction. Yet some of us see hope in technology, not in extending our lives but in bringing about an era where more is shared and less is taken.

I agree we are at a critical point in world history, and that while there is potential for destruction, there is also the potential for that "great era" emerging.

So small and so often overlooked, and so critically important to our future, to the shape of the world we will leave our children and grandchildren, if we leave them any at all. Powerful words for powerful thoughts Rob. Thank you for sharing them and reminding me that there are troubles out there much larger than my own. The difference between can we and should we.
