I was almost 40 when I got my first PC, and it only had DOS on it. I haven't gotten onto the Net until some six years ago or so.

I think we get a lot of great chances that the previous generations didn't have, but we also pay a high price for it: the overall loss of personal relationships, trust and the chance to truly know each other, the courage to risk something for a person who's for some reason important for us... that sort of things.
