I worry about my students who can't walk across this tiny campus without music to drown out any chance of thinking, responding to other people, or even noticing the natural beauty that surrounds them.

Living in Orlando, I find it very difficult to have any one moment free from noise of some sort, and my mind often feels as fragmented as this city's identity because of it. <BR/><BR/>I am not a luddite. I enjoy my computer, my C.D.'s, and my movies, but I cannot help thinking that sometimes progress is simply change, and not all change is good.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
