I am convinced that if my Dad was still alive he would be livid about everything that's been going on. Name the event, the problem, the news story and I can envision his response. "The liberals in the press this and that" or " I saw this coming for twenty years". You know he embraced the Internet before it became so viral. I can picture him with his cellie in hand tweeting away and complaining that 140 characters aren't enough!
Picture this my grandmother, my Dads mother use to ride a horse helping to deliver milk. My Dad worked on projects that involved high tech and helped put a man on the moon. So in the course of 60 years we went from horses to cars, TV and video and in another 50 years we went to all being connected to the point that we all know instantaneously what happens in any part of the world. Blows my mind, so what will happen in the next 50 or so? My grandkids will see it and probably not think anything about it! I have to tell them about the horse, the moon and the amazing people who came before who made the life we take for granted possible.
