4. Societies, as it happens, turn their backs on technologies all the time, even some that seem to be at the very cusp of their accession to prominence. Citizen initiatives have significantly shaped [technologies’] emergence -- and [their] commercial viability -- ... and this has been the case even when groups of disconnected individuals have faced coherent, swaggeringly self-confident, and infinitely better-funded pro-technology lobbies. -Adam Greenfield Sunday, 12 May, 13

28. The lines of pressure are converging from many directions: limits of environmentally rich land and clean water are being felt throughout the country; shifts in family size and workforce are changing our social structure; issues of environmental and personal health are mounting; costs of capital and time are reordering investments; and, not least, a new search for identity, community, and a sense of place is motivating many peoples’ lives ...

51. THE BICYCLE 1819 HOBBY HORSE 1863 VELOCIPEDE/BONESHAKER They fancy riders, cannot steer, And cannot safely move with speed; And so they feign a foolish fear Whene’er comes up Velocipede. Don’t believe the stories that they tell Of accident, or foul misdeed; The Journal’s “horse” long since got well, Uninjured by Velocipede. ’Tis envy simply that’s at work: The one who must on foot proceed Feels jealous when, with artful quirk, Another rides Velocipede. Some, too, there are who hate all fun, Who count all sport of ill the seed; And such judge that the Evil One Himself devised Velocipede. Karl Kron Yale College, 1869 Sunday, 12 May, 13
