Summary:

The increased electronic options becoming available are alternatives to travel. Electronics offers the only discernible solution for the individual's growing appetite for wider contact and varied experience. Developments in personal and mass communications-including cable television, prerecorded video, home TV recording, home facsimile, computers, picture phones-sometimes have unexpected social and economic results. A tyranny of numbers resulting from the concentration of an increasing population is changing the environment from a mechanical one dependent on transportation to one increasing based on the use of electronics
