Theos-Talk Archives (November 1999 Message tl00044)

Internet is the medium of immediate distribution of information.

When Jude Penfield Jackson released his finding of fact on Microsoft
Antitrust case, within the hour the full text of 200+ pages were available
for download and read from various sites on the Internet including the GPO
website, even though GPO also sells print version for $25.00.

What this demonstrates is that Internet is the default medium of choice.

Theosophical organizations are still in the stone age; may be they are
mimicking the days when paper medium and traditional postal service was the
king  (many of the letters to APSinnett were precipitated on paper and were
sent by Registered Post).  Anyone from the organizations lurking here???

Hope that during their daily meditations, one of these days they will
discover Internet and its power as a medium of communication. In the
meanwhile all we can do is to pray that to happen soon in the best
interests of Humanity.
