Hi Arnold 

Yes, I do something similar. I remain aware of important events through my 
choice of media and those around me, rather than avoiding news altogether as 
that's not helpful to me nor the world.

Regards,

Tracy

  I find that if something important happens, people tell me about it. So I 
  don't actually remain out of touch.

  The Waco, Texas standoff and the O.J. Simpson murder trial were very big 
  news here. Yet I remained blissfully unaware of them. I didn't consider them 
  important enough to think about.
