>>The story implies that the more accessible information is, the less you "wonder". This is a good story with multiple good interpretations. I myself read the story as a warning against working all day and being available through cellphones, intracells and whatnot: Without intracell assistance, his natural hearing is so weak that he misses all the grinding and screaming around him. He wonders what this feeling is called. People need silence and peace. We need to let our brain relax once in a while. You could interpret it as a "back to nature"-story. You could also interpret the story to tell us that we don't have to think as much as we did earlier: We use the Internet and other means of communication to find the answers we are looking for. When we don't have those tools available, we have to think. Your interpretation is yet another good interpretation.
