]]> Comment on The Proust Questionaire by Jon http://jontillman.com/2008/02/13/the-proust-questionaire/#comment-5604 Jon Thu, 08 May 2008 12:39:33 +0000 http://jontillman.com/2008/02/13/the-proust-questionaire/#comment-5604 Thank you Victoria. You have now made my day. I'd love to see your and your husbands responses as well. If you have nowhere to post them online, feel free to drop them in the comments here. I was unaware that Cookie Monster had answered the questionnaire, but to be sure, I will be searching for that clip now. Thank you Victoria. You have now made my day.

Atticus Finch! but of course! And so many other answers showed such a good mind and soul. In fact, when Tom would say " Hmmm, I dunno" I would say "well, listen to this guy's answers, isn't that the best articulation of that thought or feeling?" Jon, some made us laugh, like the answer about your appearance, and some were just brilliant in saying exactly what one thinks. So thank you for this page. I only hope you have seen Cookie Monster answering a few of these queries on NPR, made me roar. Hope you have all you could wish for, my friend, you have enhanced our evening no end.

]]> Comment on The End Of The Industrial Revolution by Travis http://jontillman.com/2006/06/07/the_end_of_the_industrial_revolution/#comment-5585 Travis Wed, 23 Apr 2008 14:45:14 +0000 http://jontillman.com/2006/06/the_end_of_the_industrial_revolution.html#comment-5585 No, Jessica, you're wrong. It will have an end. Where do you expect this endless source of energy to come from? Surely not oil, I hope. That's what everyone expects. They think oil is in endless supply and humans will just keep advancing and moving forward. When you run out, just go to the gas station and buy more! One day it will run out, though. Well, maybe it won't ever fully run out, but it will eventually become so difficult to get that it's way too expensive, and useless. Then, what will people do? Most other sources of "alternative energy sources" use oil in some way to be produced. Well, no oil. That means nothing modern. No electricity. No computers, no internet, no telephone, no television, nothing could be mass produced, no more air travel, or travel in any type of vehicle, and even many of the fertilizers we use contain it. So running out of oil isn't just a matter of "Well damn, how will I get to the mall and back?" The whole world as we know it would be different, and maybe a bit like it was in the past. No, Jessica, you’re wrong. It will have an end.

I thought it was very interesting how you pointed out that we are still in an industrial revolution in a way. Its true that mankind has not yet stopped developing new technology so I agree with you. I don't really think it will really ever have an end though, because scientists are constantly researching new ideas. I thought the article was very good.
