Thinking about Neil Postman
I keep thinking about Postman as I listen to the news about the potential meltdown in the reactors in Fukushima after last Friday's 9.0 earthquake and tsunami, and think about them dropping water from military helicopters and shooting water cannons at cracks in the building, hoping the water will sort of pool near the super hot reactors.
NINE POINT OH-my-gawd earthquake.
Tsunami. 4000 dead, death toll expected to rise.
Nuclear reactor MELT DOWN.
and
What's for dinner tonight? What kind of tomatoes should I plant in the garden? Do I look fat in these pants? Have I used all my cell phone minutes? When is Charlie Sheen going to dry up and blow away? Who's on Twitter? Can I afford a nap this afternoon? I should probably take a walk instead. Oh yeah. There's a nuclear reactor melting down in Japan.
