Washington Post op-ed pines for "Repeal of the Internet"

http://j.mp/159Dxn9  (Washington Post)

    "If I could, I would repeal the Internet. It is the technological
     marvel of the age, but it is not - as most people imagine - a symbol
     of progress. Just the opposite. We would be better off without it."

I've seen a lot of ludicrous reporting about tech, but this one takes
the cake. Unbelievable. By the way, in his follow-up columns, I
understand that he's going to condemn electricity and the wheel.
