I guess that’s scary, but the good thing about getting old — possibly the only good thing — is that you have a choice. I can live in the woods (I actually have 2 houses in the woods, one on an island, and one in Alaska.) I can also have the internet, so long as I still have the money to pay for it. And I’ll be dead before the planet gets so crowded that my woods are invaded. It makes me sad unless I choose not to think about it too much. I try to do all the right stuff, vote, recycle, conserve energy and live gently on the planet for the time I have left. And then I enjoy myself.
You know it’s because of you that I’m being forced to get out of my sweats and drive to town to shop for a new computer WITH SOUND. Ugh….the things I do for my bloggy buds.
The world IS moving fast… I just try not to think about it because it’s a little unnerving.
And as for all those honor students they mentioned in India… my Hubby works with a lot of Engineers from India and he says he has to re-do all of their programming work. So, guess their ‘honor student’ standards are a bit lower than here in the U.S…. Just saying… )

Truly astonishing, Tessa, I’ll post it at my place with H/T to you.

Geesh, Tessa. My head is spinning.
Good question – what does it all mean? I’m going to take the dog for a walk …

BTW, I CAN read, but I like to hear the sound effects just in case I’m missing something.
E-freaking-gad.
There’s really no other way to title this post, is there? (Still, good on you for thinking of it!)

I saw this before and it blew my mind a little bit. Now I wonder if the numbers are even scarier.
