Well, thanks for bashing my generation, that was certainly called for..

I'm 28 so I'm one of those you just bashed a bit.

To contradict you, a lot of the older guys on the works I have been consulting at never want to listen and fully understand even the more simple things. They want help and they want others to do it for them, IT is to many older people just an annoyance and not a powerful tool that should be used. They do not want to spend time lerning it. My Little brother and little sister have a lot more patience with technology as well and they are not in the IT business.

So yea, sorry Steve but I think you are wrong. I think it's all personal and individual. Because from my point of view, it's all in reverse to what you've said. However, I've seen a lot of bad patience with young people as well.
