My computer has been running slow so I thought I would see if I had any unnecessary programs gunking up my system that I could un-install. As I started my search I typed in "How do I know if a" and was planning on ending with "program is unnecessary" or something like that. As I typed the above was what came up. I think it's interesting that so many personal conversations are lost and missed out on now that you don't have to turn to your mom and say "How do I know if a boy likes me?" What about the proverbial "Where do babies come from?" Seriously. As parents we could just teach our kids how to use Google early and never answer a question again. Could come in real handy during the terrible threes "Why?", "Why?", "Why?".
Seems to me there is some humanity lost in being able to find your answers to everything from a non personal computer. Let alone, the outcomes of letting the world wide web teach your child morally.
Not a clear feeling about this predicament.
Except medical diagnosis. I am perfectly fine with people diagnosing themselves with contagious foot fungus over the Internet as opposed to them taking off their rank sock and putting their foot in my face.

Wow, has someone requested your help before to diagnose a foot fungus? Haha.
I thought we agreed you wouldn't tell anyone about my fungus.
my mom doesnt understand how to use google, so she calls me to google things for her. theres still some humanity in there :)
To answer Matt's question--YES. I diagnose illnesses at the shelter all the time. My clients there don't have internet access so I intervene. It can get pretty gross.
and Jon, we all know what you mean by "Foot fungus." Good luck with that by the way.
