The Plinth of the Quixotic Luddite. Friday, May 2, 2008. How green is cyberspace? I was recently reading an article by Al Gore.

We both function under the same restrictions of time and time changes both worlds. In the physical world, Gore highlights how the ongoing march of time is presenting the world with disastrous consequences:. 3 Video conference – with ...
