Has technology gone too far?

We live in a world today in which we rely on technology so often it's hard to image living without it. But have we gone too far? Are we at that point where enough is enough? At what point will we decide that we rely too heavily on technology?

I think that's an individual question, the answer is probably enough is enough when people no longer know how to live without technology. Can you start a fire and keep it doing for light, cooking, and warmth? I can. Can you split wood and build a fire? I can. Can you identify edible plants, if any, in your location? I can. Do you know emergency medical care in case of a disaster? I do. Can you live without electicity, water, indoor plumbing? I can, and I have. So, its individual. I know how to set bones, deliver babies, and triage in a disaster, but then I used to be a working emergency medical technician.

The Human species is the only species on earth which is learning new things everyday.. what will happen if technological advancement stops?.. Our parents in their 20's had hardly seen TV's.. today each bedroom has a TV set... is it good or bad? is a never ending discussion.. i belive that technology is alway good .. it up to us to utilise it properly
