"Why is it that every time I am in the Express Line with one item, someone behind me with more than the allotted amount is complaining that the line is moving too slowly? Isn't that just like the human consciousness? We have become what I call, the microwave generation.
We want it all now. We can't wait for our consciousness to cook slowly and we end up getting it raw in the middle and slightly cooked on the sides; hence like it is in a microwave."

Steve,
Thanks for your cheekiness. It's refreshing.
Cheers.
