Cities are no more artificial than the hives of bees. The Internet is as natural as a spider’s web. As Margulis & Sagan have written, we are ourselves technological devices, invented by ancient bacterial communities as a means of genetic survival

Yes! I was judged odd 4 saying, "Why isn't a Pepsi as 'natural' as a pine cone?" Sure, it's a superfluous, man-made, all-around weirdly-concocted object we've come to accept in our midst, but its causes can be traced back to the most ancient ones that birthed, say, trees.

If it exists, it is natural. 'Natural' means it conforms to the laws of physics.
