Spot on! I think it's only going to get worse in the future. We have also succumbed to the excessive use of technology, thus becoming unaware (or even ignorant) of what's happening around us. I am regularly using the subway, and it's insane how many people are entirely absorbed in their phones. I have been thinking that I could easily take pictures without anyone noticing. Technology connects us, and at the same time separates us from one another. Sad.
