I have to admit that I agree with what you are saying though.
We live in an environment that constanttly bombarbs us with HUGE amounts of stimuli. TV, Video Games, going to the Mall, driving in our cars ( that are now coming equipped with dvd and flat screens.)
I was at the
Digital Hollywood conference a couple of months ago in Santa Monica. Lots of seminars by all of the Corp. VP's from Intel, IBM, Texas Instruments etc...
They were all talking about how content, be it MP3's Video files, etc... are going to become much more "portable" in the near future. It will be interesting to see as we become an even more "wired" society how it will affect our childrens mental, physiological and spiritual well being.

Very true, I also think it affects adults a great deal. That's why we live in such a great, problem free society (comparatively) and something like 50% of adults have used drugs for depression.
I read a study the other day that showed as Asian counties westernize, the depression rate shoots up, even though the standard of living increases.
