It's the End of the World as We Know it...

For some reason this has been coming up so much in conversation recently I just had to throw it out there...

wikipedia.org

Don't ask me why, but this past break multiple people (with no connection to each other) have randomly brought up the topic of what the world would look like if all use of computers and technology went void. 

It honestly scares me a little to think about the reality of it because we depend SO much on it. Pretty much everything...ahh.

Take this for example, the heating system in my house suddenly stopped working so we obviously called in some professionals to turn up the heat. What they found as they were investigating was that everything required for the heating system to work was perfectly fine and functional. The heaters, the transmitters, the do-dads, and other fun things. BUT the tiny little computer box that allowed them to all function together broke...so nothing worked at all. 

Basically what I am discovering over and over again, is that we may have all the functioning components, but if the computer part ever goes missing (and pretty much everything we have now days have some component that is reliant on computers) then, it sounds like to me, we're all about doomed. 

I mean who knows what will happen and if we can ever truly prepare...but all I'm saying is that I genuinely enjoy and am thankful for the equipment that we currently have...and hopefully always have. I REALLY am a horrible horse-back rider and would have a dim future ahead of me if everything resorted back to that. Just sayin'.
