Nothing is more exciting than beginning a new semester with DTC 375. OK, that was a little over the top. I can think of some things that are more exciting, and I'll bet you can too. But it is pretty exciting! We'll look hard at the cycle of technologies: People want to do something (say, write), so they invent tools to allow that to happen. And once we have a tool (say, clay tablets), we want a better, easier, more convenient tool. So we invent paper and figure out how to put ink on it. And after a couple of millennia, we have WYSIWYG word processors. In the meantime, our writing technologies have changed us drastically from the ways our non-writing ancestors thought and lived. Those differences are the grist for our 375 mill. And I am very happy to be sharing this quest with all of you.
Enjoy! I know I will.
