Thanks for the clarification. I agree, ""..... technology" is the tools, means, processes, and technology necessary for carrying out business...... I'd respectfully submit to you that using a spoon is not business...

Actually, the classic definition of "technology" is the tools, means, processes, and technology necessary for carrying out business, etc. What people commonly call technology today was originally high technology. So, a chalkboard, a chalk, and the teacher's lesson plans are as much technology as the smartboard and the overhead projector.
