Technology by Douglas Adams (1/2)

Fountains of Wayne "Stacy's Mom"
I, of course, like to walk around singing it as "EK's Mom..."


Douglas Adams, cited here:

  • Anything that is in the world when you’re born is normal and ordinary and is just a natural part of the way the world works.
  • Anything that's invented between when you’re fifteen and thirty-five is new and exciting and revolutionary and you can probably get a career in it.
  • Anything invented after you're thirty-five is against the natural order of things.
