How is it that so many folks of my generation are unfamiliar with computers?
Our generation invented the home computer, the Internet, the Web, graphical interfaces, laptops, cell phones... I think you had to be willfully ignorant to not see what was going on all around you.
We were also the generation of the 60s. We wanted a revolution, we wanted a fair and just society. The Internet promised that, but too many sat back and let the capitalists and scammers gain control. It's a shame.
