It's sad, a whole new generation of lemmings are being raised with a level of
abstraction that insulates them from what/how things communicate in the digital
world.  My daughter doesn't understand how some apps on her phone(if not all)
could use data.  She doesn't understand IP address and why they're needed.
It's like we're evolving into the people in the movie, "Wall-E".  All they know
is that layer of abstraction and no comprehension of what lies below it.  Just
sad.
