Harry b discusses The Disappearance of Childhood. He writes, "Postman is a magnificently pessimistic writer; he overstates the case
for the decline and threatened disappearance of childhood, and talks as
if the world is going to pot." Harry manages to trash the thesis for the book, while placing it among his favorite books. I put it on the interlibrary loan list.

Henry writes that he hasn't seen an evidence that Twitter helped to organize the protests in Iran. Sides writes that Twitter helps to disseminate good information, as well as a whole lot of garbage.
