"I can't talk to the walls because they are always yelling at me. I can't talk to my wife because she listening to the walls." This demonstrates how this technology was dangerous, and I liked this quote the most because I found Mildred's addiction to these walls very interesting. I wonder what the book would be like from her perspective. Also I think this relates a lot to the way technology is viewed in the real world today because our friends and family get so involved in social media or a tv show that we feel we can't talk to them. I'm really glad we did this because I found this theme very interesting and I could relate a lot to it.

451 technology control
I just finished my project of 451 with my group and we had the theme, "in the wrong hands technology can be dangerous." I enjoyed this because this was very present throughout the book. I remember the things from the hounds to the parlor walls, to the war technology. Most of this technology was more advanced than what we have today, except I found that the war weapons were not anything to new than Nothing we have today. The do, do a lot of damage but I didn't see any improvement and I wonder why Bradbury did that. The hounds were very advanced and scary and I thought it was interesting how you couldn't see a connection.
