People have been using their voices for thousands of years, so is that
an 'outdated' form of communication? According to you it would be.
Language replaced grunting, burping and farting as forms of
communication, but you can still use that form of communication if you
want to. How about implanting a CPU into everyone's brain so that we
can communicate using brain waves? Amateur radio is in no way
competing with the internet. They are both forms of communication.
Now, with your brilliant thought processes, try coming up with
something worthwhile to communicate.
