“Even though they are awed by technology and the things that it does, they are not necessarily surprised by it.” –Radford Quamahongnewa, Songs of the Fourth World

In my own impish, somewhat cool, glacial sense of humour (more often overlooked, than not) I address Whorf’s claims about time–something very near and dear to my heart.

Even though I am awed by technology and the things that it does, I am not so surprised by it–that I cannot find it elsewhere, in other times and places, and in different ways. So, in that way, I have no qualm over allowing the satellites to fall from the sky, or leaving my phone behind.
