                    [Summary] => There are people who view rural life romantically. They savor the idea of not having electric power. They cook with firewood, read over a gas lamp, have candle-lit dinners. No TV, no computers,  no microwave ovens, no refrigerators. No hot showers, only baths in the river. No hot water for washing disease, only cold water drawn from a well. In short, life is simple, without frills.


But how long can these idyllic states last?


Not too long – we hope. We know that progress comes about with technological changes, and it starts with a light bulb shining at the door.
