The two of us haven't seen each other for a year now, and when we saw each other we bowed in front of each other. This very idea of bowing - you don't bow in front of a screen. It's made impossible, or very difficult, for people who constantly see non-persons on the screen. (Ivan Illich)

Now, the velocity of wave propagation can be seen, without the aid of any mathematical analysis, to depend on the elasticity of the medium and its density; for we can see that if a medium is highly elastic the disturbance would be propagated at a great speed.
