Closing Thought

"This instrument can teach, it can illuminate, yes, it can even inspire.  But it can do so only to the extent that humans are determined to use it to those ends. Otherwise, it's nothing but wires and lights in a box"

-Edward R. Murrow,
talking about TV ... and why not the Internet?
