| Lily: | So this is what happens to all text? |
| Lex: | Eventually. Whether it takes minutes or millenia, eventually text vanishes. |
| Linda: | If you contemplate the 'lifespan' of an average text, it's sobering. Only a few texts survive the lifespan of their creators. |
| Liao: | That's a blessing: it clears out a lot of dead wood. Aren't most people overloaded with information? |
| Lily: | We are overloaded with trivia, which is the way that those in power would prefer it. However, when it comes to real information it's amazing how little the average person actually knows. |
| Ron: | Yep. The average dude knows more about baseball scores or movie gossip than how the government is actually spending money or the crap that goes into the food they eat. |
| Linda: | Consumer choice: most people do not want to know. Many facts are unpleasant and ignorance is much more fun than knowledge. |
| Lex: | Anyway, isn't it time to turn this page? |
