Oooops!

A a big mouth college student challenged a senior citizen saying
it was impossible for their generation to understand his world.
"You grew up in a different world," the student said. "Today we
have television, jet planes, space travel, nuclear energy,
computers, the internet . . . "

Taking advantage of a pause in the student's litany, the senior
said, "You're right sonny . We didn't have those things when we
were young. So we invented them!"

This is very true. I'm 55 but even in my time there have been many inventions (electricity was already here and we were the first to have an indoor loo when I was a child - gosh, that does make me sound old!).
