Even though you laugh at me saying "Again!," I think I'm repeating over and over that humans should not be a machine of what they made.

We misunderstand the speed as my own power when driving a car. Having a gun, we start to be fascinated by our attacking ability. We think we use it but in reality we are used by it. In this way people become a slave of things they made. We can easily transmit our thoughts with handy information equipment now. I wonder if the same thing happens there.
