so living organisms evolved sensitivity to that band, and that's what we now call "visible light". '

I have no fewer than 30 baby books stone cold memorized. Those brain cells used to be free to work on other things and now they’re all in inane prison.

I still cannot believe that I can:

- look at a world map and tap anywhere to zoom in at street level

- instantly access any song, book, movie, tv show, or podcast ever made

- have any conceivable question and get an immediate answer or video explanation

- take a photo or video wherever I am and add it to my massive, searchable, always accessible personal archive

- video call anyone in my life, at anytime, no matter where they are

- watch live sports on a little wireless glass rectangle

- type out these thoughts and have them read by thousands of people, all over the world, a few seconds later
