NOT in my home...

NOT now

Not before

Not ever

Learned how to use a telephone when it was a crank version on the kitchen wall. STILL DO NOT HAVE A CELL PHONE—DO NOT WANT ONE.

I KNOW HOW to DRIVE-—I do NOT ever wish to have ‘Self Driving cars’. Have driven over 1 million miles — TO places I could ONLY find on a paper map. NO GPS required.

Learned how to manually set my thermostats & control them daily many years ago-—actually lived for over 12 years with ONLY a wood burning stove to heat over 2500 sq ft.

Know how to water when I need to do so.

The utter laziness of handing over these chores to “electronics” is more proof of how little brain power we still use.

The very fact you’re on a social site proves everything you claim is not true.

On ole Man Bell’s party lines you had to worry about the neighborhood buzy body. Now you have to worry about the CCP clear across the glide.
