> we NEED it to survive.

plenty of people in the world still drink crappy water, and they survive.

You don't _need_ it, you want it, because it's much more comfortable.

But when something becomes a "need" as you described it, you think of it differently. Just like how you don't _need_ electricity to survive, but it's so ingrained that you now think of it as a need.

exactly, but i have already said this in my original post - your standards just moved up.
