Thanks to the COM352 students for contributing a bunch of new pages! I'll be moving these pages into the main area of the wiki soon.

Almost everybody from the class believed Zengotia's argument of how we humans are numb. After reading all of the summaries the pattern in all of them was that the author used a lot of evidence such as television, 9/11, having the perfect body, to back up his argument. Some believed that the evidence provided were to prove how humans get over bad things easily "Even though it was such a horrible and tragic event, all it took was around six months to forget and move on"(Esco). Esco's sentence is very important when reading Zengotia's thoughts about us regarding September 11, 2001. Even though almost everyone believed, there were also some doubters. I don't believe they are all numb in the same way that Zengotita describes it(andy). He agreed with the author in some ways but he did not believe everything that was written down and he also made a good point based on what Zengotia said. If Zengotia was write, we would all forget about this paper a few minutes later. I believed the things that the author wrote because there was evidence to convince me.Phane88 13:10, 12 April 2007 (EDT)
