Technology has brought awe-inspiring advances in the past twenty-five years. Gone are the rotary dial phone, long play record and typewriter. They’ve been replaced with cell phones, I-pods and laptops. The advances in the past two and a half decades have been mind boggling.
For all of our steps forward, there is one technology that is going backwards: one science that is slowly returning to the dark ages. I refer, of course, to mirror-imagery.
Has anyone looked in a mirror lately? I can tell you from personal experience that the reflection quality is slipping. Thinking about the deterioration in mirror-imagery in the past 25 years, I dread to think of the unfortunate refections 25 years from now, unless something is done immediately, not only to stop the deterioration, but return mirror-imagery to its glory days.
Come on, folks! It’s time to take to the streets. Write your congressperson and demand that saving mirror-imagery become the nation’s #1 priority. Forget about resources for education, we’ve got a developing crisis here.

The perfect example: a modern-day mirror looks at a perfectly tidy and clean room, but reflects a dusty, disorganized, dirty, disgusting room.
