Computers are part of a remarkable set of steps forward that, after a century, have led to the end of hunger, the doubling of our life spans, and the end of a back-breaking lifestyle in which 50% of the people were needed to be farmers and labor 14 hours a day. Some say the advances have now led to a general pause in the amount of global warfare going on, a trend which, if it continues, ends centuries upon centuries of savagery, death, and man's inhumanity to man.
If you are not happy now, that is your choice.
