DeleteSometimes we laugh at those who are behind their desks studying hard all day on technology. In fact, they are the ones we mocked and called such names as geeks, egg-heads, tefal-head, freaks and such like. But, these are the ones that provide us with all the technology that we use today.
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't be able to contact you right now if it wasn't for them. Take a look at Skype,emails - faster than you can write a letter and all the brilliant things we use.
Well said Rum-Punch Drunk, I could not have expressed it better even if I tried. Think of the struggles those guys must have gown through those who told them it was impossible and they still persevered, it makes one think have you ever stifled your dreams and passions because others thought it was not cool or it was impossible?
