Amish People

Something to think about

The Amish culture is really different in how they view and use technology. In my opinion, that is both a good and a bad thing. They are not primarily dependent on technology, so that when the electricity goes out they are not as effected as my generation would be to the point of freaking out. They also do not believe in the use of T.V. (at all), phones, and all other technical things that are important to "outside world" culture.
However, I believe the Amish culture struggles to communicate and keep up with the "outside world." When there is an emergency? How will they receive info quickly? How difficult and long will it take?

I believe that it would take months as well as be very difficult get to receive help and info.
