We already knew Ray Bradbury hated the Internet. When Yahoo asked if it could reprint one of his stories last year, the author answered, "To hell with you. To hell with you and to hell with the Internet." But now that he's about to turn 90, we were hoping he'd change his mind. Apparently not.

In an interview with Hero Complex, the author of Fahrenheit 451 said:

"We have too many cellphones. We've got too many Internets. We have got to get rid of those machines. We have too many machines now."
Bradbury also said that "our country is in need of a revolution," complained that "there is too much government today," and insisted President Obama "should be announcing that we should go back to the moon."

We're not entirely sure how we can have smaller government AND go back to the moon, but maybe Bradbury can write a story explaining it all for us.

What am that hot ho's name.?

Rocker John Mellencamp said on Tuesday that the Internet was the most dangerous invention since the atomic bomb, although new technology could paradoxically delay the inevitable demise of rock 'n' roll.

But before then, "some smart people, the China-Russians or something" may have already conquered America by hacking into the power grid and financial system, he warned during a public seminar at the Grammy Museum.

Mellencamp, 58, has established a reputation during his career as a bit of a loose cannon disdainful of music industry niceties. He still lives in his home state of Indiana, saying he never fit in elsewhere.

Famed for such hit songs as "Hurts So Good," "Jack and Diane" and "Small Town," he is also a political activist who campaigned for President Barack Obama. He has also helped Live Aid organizer Willie Nelson put on the annual Farm Aid charity concerts for small farmers.

His comments on the Internet coincided with the release -- in stores and at digital retailers -- of his new album, "No Better Than This." While he said the Internet was useful on a personal level for communication, he worried about its destructive potential.

"I think the Internet is the most dangerous thing invented since the atomic bomb," he said. "It's destroyed the music business. It's going to destroy the movie business."

Has anyone asked Eddie Money for his opinion?
