The San Jose Mercury News published my brief rebuttal to Thomas Friedman's recent Luddite piece discussed on the list. In the NYT it was titled "Webbed, Wired and Worried," http://www.nytimes.com/2002/05/26/opinion/26FRIE.html, in the SJM it was called "Terrorists shake high-tech's foundation of trust'" .
