Won't it become much less obvious when people are filming via google glass? As recording devices get smaller, and less obtrusive, and turned on without notice, how will we know when we are being recorded? We don't always know when we are right now (by random strangers).

This is a particular concern for women and children, who's everyday, ordinary activities can be sexualized and uploaded to the Internet without their knowledge or consent, even now.

This made me wonder about an NPR story on memory, and research into how people mistakenly remember events that happened to other people, as their own memories, and if there is a connection to that phenomena.

I tried to make a quick search for it, but came up empty.

I wonder if any story lines become unusable, like the example of certain phrases, like "rough day" evolving to not evoke the other brain areas.

Thanks! Yeah, maybe I'd change wiping to tending...

I was thinking about djw's ideas, and going over it in my head off on and on yesterday, and couldn't quite make the change.

It might make it better, but it also changed it into a different poem. And this was the one in me. Though, I don't write poetry and never studied it, so I was afraid it might come off a bit limerick-ish :)

I've been on the bone marrow registry forever. At the time it was free, I took part of a drive. Then a few years later they were charging people to the costs to get the blood work done etc., which was not inexpensive. I know it does cost money to run such a program but it seemed like a barrier for people. I'd say cut out the quarterly four color glossy newsletters to myself. I hope they changed that policy.

I once was a temp, at a job I had been at like forever, and I still remember that "real" employees got paid to go give blood and temps had to go on our own time. I mean, they always had to do stuff to differentiate. Even that. :/

This was fun! (not the problem you had) but to try and figure out after the fact what you might have done to turn a complex situation around.
