just found this in my BirdBrain book, seems relevant to our interests:

Your family circle has widened. The worldpool of information fathered by electric media [...] far surpasses any possible influence mom and dad can now bring to bear. Character no longer is shaped by only two earnest, fumbling experts.
Now all the world's a sage...

That's a good idea posting the collection to Dropbox. I might do that with the project my poems were from as you'll be able to see the pictures then. Excellent quote too.

You posting that quote reminds me how my media teacher in high school was really into McLuhan. It's nifty how he's still super relevant even decades on.

You ladies are very talented
