Yes but can he build a house, a chair or feed himself without going to a supermarket ? Careful with these sweeping statement as in " The Younger Generation Is Much, Much Smarter Than We Are " Per se using a PC is something and building it is something else. After all Alexander the Great was 14 when he conquered the (known) "World"

I find it quite scary that people in their mid-20s are already "old" by today's standards

Well... Do they have a life? Do they know how to hit on girls? Could they survive out on the street by themself? Well most probably can.

But yeah, we, the younger generation has to be smarter... While it takes my 20 year older coworkers weeks to learn some new software at work it takes me maybe a couple of days. And I bet if I was interrested in builing a chair I could probably do that too!

hello scott

Well I am a 35 yo female & find programs very easy to learn...It can take me only a day or two as well. But, I must say that I am very proud of our Millenium Generation & find nothing wrong with them being smarter than me. It is very obvious that, with technology growing as it is, our children should be better at it than us old folks
