    Damn electric computers, back in my day they were all coal fired & steam powered the way God intended. Not only that rockets were things one kept in their pocket for those special times with the ladies. Not something you shot in the sky. :nonod:

    I'm only a luddite when it comes to smart phones, nanny systems in cars, and 'big brother' type systems that are starting to proliferate our world.

    I suspect that the list of technology I'll be avoiding will grow in the coming decades.
