When I first moved to Silicon Valley in January 1996 the popular rumor was that Sun was going to buy Apple.

how is a farmer is the middle of nowhere is going to use a phone or a computer

[silvergodofgold]

Good question. When my friend went to Egypt in 2003, the bedouins (nomadic desert people) used cell phones to call family and friends when in reception areas. Imagine the world today?

How would a farmer use this in "the middle of nowhere" - or in the "BFE"? :D Like you do. You use your hands and your heart; you use your mouth and your mind. You just do it.

So can everyone. It is a beautiful world in which we are all connected, if you choose to see the interconnected nature that we share.
