This article concreted a good amount of ideas i have bestold in my mind. The idea of how scientists have lost control of their former practices due to man's new capabilties of a technology driven world. No physics needed for me as man becomes more and more less fearful of anything escape for the role that the few gifted physicists are able to play. The role of designing weapons for a nation (sattelites included).
When Bush starts to talk deeply about camera processes, I begin to wonder where he was going with this but then the explanation was around the corner. How man is creating this web of documentation of one's life. I notice this everyday that man has a need to document all works and publish them for all. We all have story but please listen to mine more then the other. Everyone wants to outlive their current life but this will bring complications to that current life...
"Presumably man's spirit should be elevated if he can better review his shady past and analyze more completely and objectively his present problems. He has built a civilization so complex that he needs to mechanize his records more fully if he is to push his experiment to its logical conclusion and not merely become bogged down part way there by overtaxing his limited memory. His excursions may be more enjoyable if he can reacquire the privilege of forgetting the manifold things he does not need to have immediately at hand, with some assurance that he can find them again if they prove important." Bush, Page 8/ paragraph 9
