[quoting Sims, 2 Aug 96] On a more personal note, I had the great fortune to watch a humpback whale and its newborn cub swim north some 50 meters from the headland where I was walking the dog this morning. Its times like that which remind me there is always so much more to the world than the 15" monitor in front of which I spend too much time.
[quoting Tripp, 2 Aug 96] Are you arguing that the medium makes a difference?!!!!
But surely its the content, rather than process or medium, that makes the difference here--would Rod's dog walking experience have been as notable if interrupted by a sardine and its family, as by the whale?
