Which others? I'm at a loss to think of any significant way in
which I'm worse off than I'd be in an agricultural or hunter-gatherer
society. I'd like to see my family more often than I do; but I
certainly *could*, and I choose to live where I do for compensating
benefits. I can think of much I'd miss in a less-developed society
even if I'd always lived there.
