Yeah. I was just saying I dont think we can compare it to things people previously freaked out about because scientific studies are showing that it actually is hurting our brains, and the development of kids brains. And you can see it in day to day; no one has patience any more. My friends wont watch a dvd of a movie they have because its too much effort to get up and put the disc in. If something isn't instantaneously gratifying they drop it like a rock.

Now of course if timmy watched 12 hours of Ren and stimpy back in the day I imagine that may have a similar negative effect. But the difference is the tv wasn't portable and attached at the hip like it is now.
