    Default what would be the hardest thing to do without

    so i was thinking about it and i was wondering what would be the hardest thing, that you have now, to give up should society colapse and the modern technology becomes useless with no electricity. for me it would be the music i listen to. it seems like most of the time im awake i have my ipod going. but i was wondering if theres anything you guys would find really hard to be without. im not talking about necessities, im talking about luxuries.

    ill go with the internet cause its got everything. music, information, movies, email, blogging, and art. the information is my favorite. music is #2 on that list, especially since most of what i listen to you cant find on the radio.
