Let see the five year old try to program a mainframe using punch cards, show him the punch card writer and see if he can use it.

Saw a special last Summer where they gave the young kids who were up on Smart Phones a dial phone to use. Did not know what to do with it. Looked on the bottom for a screen. They also did not had any idea what a VCR and a cassette recorder was.

So, we know things they don't and we know all of them.

That quote was a favorite line used by all my professors in me Electrical Engineering classes at Drexel.
