Marshall McLuhan is no slouch either. BTW, I love the title of your paper and look forward to reading it. Andy Clark’s “Being There” is a terrific book on the topic.

Very nice. Towards the end you mentioned the notion of the externalization knowledge and said that there has been a lot of work on the subject. I'd be interested in your set of references on the subject. I'm interested in this issue because (naturally) I recently wrote a related paper, "<a href="http://cs.calstatela.edu/wiki/images/6/6c/%22If_a_tree_casts_a_shadow_is_it_telling_the_time%3F%22.pdf" rel="nofollow"> If a tree casts a shadow is it telling the time?</a>," which argues that computation is the externalization of (procedural) thought.
