Kids today "might" remember when Facebook was a thing, though it's probably more likely that they'll think fondly of TikTok or Insta. They may remember when their parents finally, finally, let them have their own cellphone because these too will one day be obsolete. (Can't imagine what will replace these ubiquitous tools, but then, I could not have imagined cell phones when I was a kid.) The world when you are a kid looks and feels different, otherwise how else can one explain the near universal Beatlemania (now replaced by Taylormania)? The Beatles look different to me now. These innovators are now relegated to the "classics" list. This is an interesting thread!
