It's All Relatives

"When the computer aks, 'Are you sure you want to delete this file?, 'Just say no." Pg.99

I thought this was interesting because it is just something that Americans know to do. If it asks you are you sure you want to delete something and you don't want to delete it generally you know to say no. It seems kind of ridiculous in a way that someone doesn't understand that but at the same time it seems like it makes sense because he had never used computers before.

"What an injustice to deny a mind like that an education" Pg. 101

I thought this was interesting because that is happening a lot in America today. Many people can't afford a good education and this means that many smart people are going uneducated. I think that if everyone was educated in America and in the world then we would be better off. Even if someone is homeless or very poor that doesn't mean that they do not have a mind. I think everyone has potential and there are probably some genius's out there who could contribute to the world in a positive but don't get the chance because they can not afford to be further educated and then become an extremely successful and influential person.
