The presence of a computer in the home is not the only measure of the prevalence of computers in society at large. I'm not ignoring anything. I was there, I lived it. And I know that being 66 is no excuse for lacking technical knowledge. It's willful ignorance, not a byproduct of happenstance.
Younger people tend to be more open to new things and less set in their ways
Even if that were true - and that's a pretty dubious claim, IMO - it does not necessarily follow that
... certainly makes a difference in this case.

- _0ffh 5y ago> I was there, I lived it. Yes, so did I. I find it curious that we seem to remember that period so differently. I can easily find sources saying things like "between the ages of 25 and 60 people's ability to use websites declines by 0.8% per year", that's 28 percentage points difference in the ability to use a website. But I'll stop arguing, it doesn't seem very promising at this point.
