35. um, a word of defense here.

I am almost 66 years old, with very little tech background. Any online research I try always takes more than sixty seconds. I don't know what I've done to my computer, but it's full of glitches. And then I always somehow hit the wrong button before I can see what the right one would have been. Plus my keyboarding is awful. Probably Beck has the same problems.

You younger people have some advantages over us older ones, and I thank God for them. As a group, I believe you are much better than we were. Of course, there are always exceptions, but you guys overall have more understanding and expertise in different areas. When I talk to different ones of you, you don't seem to realize how smart you are, all of you, not just a few. Don't listen to the propaganda. You do too deserve to run the world. You should have seen these guys when they were your ages! I was there watching them, so I know. Wait for your chance to assume authority, and do not hesitate to take it.
