Cindy Adams Hates Hotel Room Technology

Yesterday's Page Six features a pretty lengthy rant from 80-something-year-old gossip columnist Cindy Adams who, according to the picture on the page, yearns for the days of the horse-drawn carriage.

Simply put, Cindy seriously cannot deal with all the new technology in hotel rooms. She writes:

For instance, the room's master light switch. Activate it and everything goes off. Everything. Ev-er-y-thingggg! You're in an unfamiliar environment, strange surroundings, you haven't a handle on the space or position of the furnishings.

Need to get up in the middle of the night? You can either fall over a low table, gash your leg and bleed as I have done without being able to locate a band-aid or towel because you can't find anything because the place is pitch black and you're just paces from the bed while the stupid master light switch is a football field away at the door entrance.

She continues for a while about more stuff she doesn't know how to use, like shower dials and room service via TV. She even tells the cute little story of the time she thought she was opening her bathroom door and ended up stumbling into the hallway and getting locked out of her room in her nightgown. Can't say it's ever happened to us, but we get it, Cindy.
