I enjoyed the conversation, even if at times it seemed a bit "get off my lawn," in regards to modern technologies. mpoe, what was the term you used to describe the state of mind you enter when engrossed in a physical activity like sports etc? I missed the term, but caught the discussion and I too have enjoyed that state of mind while playing sports and running.

I was excited for this conversation and look forward to checking out the book. I enjoy Douglas Rushkoff's writing. I was introduced to his work via an article titled Are Jobs Obsolete that generated a nice discussion on Hubski. I actually traded emails with him about the discussion and I recall him being very nice, even though he was obviously quite busy.
