> It's just the classic "older people tend to be more conservative" fact. Can we please kill this myth already? That was extraordinary so during the era when social changes swept through society, but someone who spent their formative years during the 70s will hardly regard today's society anything else than an extension of the changes which took place then. There are many different ways to act conservatively. Resistance to new ideas because "but we've always done it this way" is a lot more common with people whose definition of "always" stretches to five (maybe ten) years. > Electron anyone? Well, let's put it this way: Most ideas are bad. But you can't dismiss all ideas on that statistical ground, because then you would miss the really good ones.
