Thursday, September 19th Discussion Vote

I encourage you to read both before voting.

1)
Something unique.
This is an article about art and it has many pictures.
What do you think about the artist? Is this art?
What do you think about these smokers? Are they courageous? Are they just addicts?
What do you do to relax in our super busy culture? Did we lose a good way to relax when smoking became such an evil?

2)
Something technological.
This is an article about how technology is helping seniors grow old with dignity.
Is this type of thing worth the price to taxpayers?
How do you feel about the elderly being put into homes? Do you want to go to a home when you are old?
What other types of technology help, or could help?
Does this sort of technology just make the life of doctors much easier?
Will this sort of thing result in more deaths because the doctors are not actually seeing the patients?
