I have been a computer using geek since my Commodore Vic 20 in 1981. It is nearly impossible to really understand how far we have come with computers since those days.
My brother is the Analog man. He used his flip phone until it died. He two sons dragged him to the phone store and got him a modern smart phone. He can send a short text message but it often so garbled it is easier to call him.
All of that leads to this. He was in town not long ago and still resisting his smart phone. I showd him that he can look up the how to fix anything at all on his phone. He was not gonna believe it and I showed him how to do a search. I asked him to name the subject and he named some rare carburetor adjustment. Up popped a video with every step. He know the steps, but he thought he was one of the few on the planet that knew. It was like secret information was made public. It was always there.
