My father was born in 1930. I used to have conversations about how the world changed with his mother starting when she was little. Yeah, you really nailed it. Just in my own life, going from card catalogs at the library to Wikipedia ON MY PHONE THAT I WALK AROUND WITH is nuts. When I was a kid, if your needed info you didn't have, you were waiting until you got to a library, or whatever. Mail order took 6 - 8 weeks to arrive. Grocery stores had like two kinds of lettuce, etc.
