That is a very good point to make Jon. Although I went in a completely different direction with it. I do enjoy what you are saying.
My main reasoning, and this is a REALLY SHORTENED VERSION is that the Net has become so widely used, reaching all corners of the globe, that it controls a lot of people's lives. The internet is constantly updated, maintained, and acclaimed my millions of people daily. In doing so, they lose their ways. Instead of reading full length pages and books, they must constantly be doing something else. They briefly read headlines, skimming articles, and become focused on whats the main subject.
Instead of thinking about it, they just read it and move on. Especially with my generation, we must constantly be doing something and this is how we do it.
The Net is literally changing our lives, our society, our way of life, etc. It really is an intellectual technology that is destroying our intellect.
