I am 75 years old and somehow survived without even KNOWING about a pool cooler. How many days a year do you think the water gets up past 88 here? I would guess no more than 30.
Well, many people here of any age never KNEW about "central air conditioning", especially in the northern half of the nation, until the 1980s or so, but now central A/C is expected instead of those heavy metal boxes hanging out of the windows of the bedrooms, and they sag and look tacky.

Many people here never KNEW about "personal computing" or "internet" until the 1980s, 90s and 2000s. I guess then that the Recreation Dept. ought not be wasting OUR money on being computerized, because many of us never KNEW of that until recent years or decades.

But my guess is, we all learn things every day that we didn't KNOW about, and if we are willing, we can change our minds when new information is learned.
