Can anyone seriously imagine doing that?

No e-mail, no word processor, no Google...no problem? Our reporter goes cold turkey and lives to tell the tale.

Nope.

I read the account.

How do you communicate without email ?

By Snail mail standards, life has changed by the time they recieve ?

That would finally push me over the edge. You would be able to find me at the local mental ward after the first day.

lol... Oh, sweet marmalade - is that funny.

I would last between 35 and 45 minutes.

I've had this forced on me before. By the power company. Took them two days to believe that twenty blocks could be without power... Thier reason: If we were without power than they would be fixing it...

Psh, that's nothing, I went 35 days without a computer at all last summer.

Only communication we had was a single phone with a directional antenna aimed at a receiver on the mainland, and that was billed like a pay phone (read: expensive).

It's plenty doable when you're distracted by... other things.

i think i could do it. there have been several occasions that i have gone a week without a computer. it would be tough...but possible.

I went on a holiday last year for 25 days. No PC. No laptop. No email. Not even a handheld!

And I survived. Imagine that!
