В принципе, позиция "2012 как 1968" неплохо бьется с логикой "сейчас у нас ранние 80е". Но это, конечно, упрощение.

What happened. Social networks. Facebook. And smartphones. Combined.

I walk in the neighborhood, and see school kids waiting for their bus. Neighbors. They keep the distance, 20 feet. Everyone looking into the phone, not talking to each other. It's a new world.

The most scary thing is that this is real and you can't hide. Keeping yourself free from smartphone is a new chore.

Wait, why so? I spent this morning cleaning around the driveway. I had a headset on my head, and a phone in my pocket. Listening to a play on RFI. You think there's something wrong with it?

I have to check myself that I'm not using smartphone to check news, etc. Because the possibility of me getting into loop "not working, but spending time with a screen in this case" is too high for me.
