 Reading this at the moment and liked his description of our reactions to new technology- obviously in relation to age/Generation.

1.Anything that is in the world when you're born is normal and ordinary and just a natural part of the way life works

2. Anything that's invented when you're between fifteen and thirty five, is new and exiting and you can probably get a career in it

3.Anything invented after you're thirty five is against the natural order of things
