When the internet ends, information recollection begins.

What will we do as we try to function not only with our machines and devices more often but give up intelligence. When were all dwindling fools not because technology changed us overnight, but because we bred our kids that way, will they learn or will they literally be left with an Eden of time for which to raze with sloth and pestilence?
My friend Micah Knapp brought up several years ago an intriguing story he remembered, known as The Machine Stops. This is quite a similar scenario, but I was curious in looking at humans from the evolutionary standpoint that we don't do much to survive now. We no longer focus on the stars and their positions to gain insight into the timing of the seasons, months and days. Crops are planted with product, not the hybrid seeds past down from generation to generation. Would speech still exist if human machine hybrids were created and we, as man & machine communicated wirelessly our thoughts to each other? I imagine we would become hyper-social and in turn perhaps one ourselves with the networked machine. Each of us only a node of thought, in a wave of change each being received and interpreted before re-transmission.
And what education could prepare both a virtual life and physical life, if there wasn't a separation.
