We are living in an electronic world that inundates us with more information — some factual and a lot of extraordinarily unproven information — than we can digest or absorb. When we find ourselves surrounded by all this stuff — for lack of a better word, the technical word would be plethora — we bury our heads, ignore, run away or simply throw up our hands and do what always used to work: just plain hope that all the problems caused by this stuff goes, hopefully, away.
