    “It is critical vision alone which can mitigate the unimpeded operation of the automatic.”
    —Marshall McLuhan (1911–1980)

    “Waiting for the race to become official, he began to feel as if he had as much effect on the final outcome of the operation as a single piece of a jumbo jigsaw puzzle has to its predetermined final design. Only the addition of the missing fragments of the puzzle would reveal if the picture was as he guessed it would be.”
