Is recession forcing people to change their technologies? [modified]

You mean like, using pencil and paper, cooking over a fire pit, walking, hunting your food with a spear, growing vegetables in a garden, actually talking to neighbors in the evening instead of watching TV? Sadly, no. Marc

Speak for yourself. I hunted my neighbour last night with a spear and ended up clubbing her over the head with a Kumquat.

No, but they might try using "proven technologies" instead of doing a lot of pure-ish R'n'D.

Indeed. Sniggers childishly. You can't beat a nice Kumquat, but you can beat an egg.

:-D Reminds me off this old favourite .... A chicken and an egg are lying in bed. The chicken is leaning against the headboard smoking a cigarette, with a satisfied smile on its face. The egg, looking a bit fed up, grabs the sheet, rolls over, and says, "Well, I guess we finally answered THAT question."
