Nice commentary on the increasingly unhinged thoughts of Baroness Greenfield.
Things we do with computers change our brains. Duh. So do things we do with books (she likes those) and, for that matter, things we do with flowers, bathtubs and paint. We need to look closely and carefully at such effects. Unfortunately, the image of drooling young people wearing onesies trumps the facts in Greenfield's argument.
