Gathering Data

In an interview in late 70s, Saul Below once said seven days of the week we keep busy stuffing ourselves with data. No sooner do we begin to use the data to our good that the new week begins and we again make it our business to gather new data. He made his diagnosis three decades ago yet we don't seem to have ever tried to do something about it. I wonder if it was his diagnosis in a pre-internet era what he has to say for now.

This combat footage is about Iraq war.

I think though that being humans we always want more data.Thats how we have evolved to be intelligent beings by developing out brains.So i don't think that people would ever say thats enough.
