6-May-2008 Yes，it's very clear that machine power is better than man power．But machine power has its limitations．It cannot survive without electricity and manhandling．If it doesn't have these two then it is completely useless．So man should not completely depend on machines．One more point is that because of the use of machines man has become lazy．This lazines s has brought in many problems like obesity，arthritis （關(guān)節(jié)炎） and other health problems．But I am not saying that man should completely turn from ma-chine power to man power．He should have a balance of both．Even I can't think of life without a car，a computer and a cooler．
Sally
