Fashionably Late

Now that I'm here at the party - wait, what party is this? Where am I?! Lost. Lost is nowhere close! Alien? Total techno-geezer? Hopeless time traveller like that dude from the '70's? Worse.
"Where is the Life we have lost in living? Where is the wisdom we have lost in knowledge? Where is the knowledge we have lost in information?" - from "The Rock" T.S. Eliot 1934 (quoted by Bogle in "Enough."
"With Wikipedia at our fingertips and Google waiting online to serve us, we are surrounded by information, but increasingly cut off from knowledge. Facts (or, more often, factoids) are everywhere. But wisdom - the kind of wisdom that was rife in the age of this nation's Founding Fathers - is in short supply. ...soon we shall know everything that doesn't count, and nothing that does" -from "Enough." John C. Bogle 2009
