Do You Need A Virtual Break?

          Mark Bittman wrote "I Need a Virtual Break. No, Really" where he talks about his addiction to technology and how he needs a break from all of it. He also points out the downside of unplugging from technology, because there are so many people that depend on him, he is worried that there would be an emergency before the 24 hour unplug ends. 
            I think that others should take the initiative to unplug for 24 hours. There's more to life than hiding behind a screen. There may be people out there who don't think they can do it, but then just think if you were forced to unplug. If every device in the world just stopped working, the people who don't use their devices often will be fine, but others who depend on those same devices would be freaking out. This is the reason that everyone should unplug for 24 hours once a week, or even once a month.
