Clean water is more important than penicillin.

Clean water is a product of knowledge.

Knowledge can be spread through the Internet more effectively than other
communication systems.

And the knowledge it spreads need not be limited to clean water.

I once listened to an Indian activist explaining that, actually,
villagers do need computers. They help stop their crops failing...
