SAGE ADVICE: Off line and off kilterI hate it when the Internet is down. I hate it for all the reasons you would expect. I can’t check, send or delete e-mail. I can’t access the Web site that has all of Townes Van Zandt’s lyrics. I can’t search Wikipedia to see if any of the folks listed as notable people from my college are actually anyone I’ve ever heard of. But more than that, I hate it because it makes me see, and confront, how much the thing we used to call, before we had any idea what it really meant, the information superhighway has changed my life.

MOUNTAIN VIEW: A Visit to Turtle IslandHave you seen a turtle lately? If you come across one, be kind to the old reptile. If it’s braving a busy road, stop and help it across. If one lives in your backyard, leave a flat dish of water, some tomatoes, a peach; I’ve seen them plunge their faces into each of these.
