About this title

Synopsis

The concern that Henry David and I share in this Common Sense Sketch has to do with just that: our tools. That concern is not only that our kids are being kidnapped by their cell phones, computers, tablets, these electronic con-trap-tions that have surrounded us. But, "Uncle" Tim, our concern is that we parents and grandparents are being increasingly hijacked by the same. (For those who haven't made his acquaintance, "Uncle" Tim, friends, is the CEO of Apple Computer.) ¿ Can it be, friends, that we are destroying our minds as we are developing our brains? Given the unprecedented developments with what is referred to as 5-G, this question is becoming ever more actual, "existential," as the sketch between these covers accounts: A veritable Warning Label it is.
