Hi,

I do not believe KM animals are any different from IM animals. The animal symbolicum can accidentally have grown into a sociologist or into a physicist. Same difference. What does make a difference, in my view, is the power, flexibility and user friendliness of the machine, that turn man inside it almost into a God. He can contact people all over the face of the earth, make him look up things he would never have dreamed of picking up again, just to belong to the community that emerges through the net. This external net, that used to be supported by stagecoaches, is now supported by high technology and its reflections in man's mind therefore is more precise and knowledgeable. It is the deus ex machina that once again captures our imagination.
