I have a note in my wallet, reminding me to look up and print info on the links between the Bush family and the Nazis....the guy who asked me is in his 80s and doesn't even know how to turn a computer on. A lot of 'em are switched on, though. More coming online all the time. It's a great thing! Not only are people around the world able to hook up for the first time, but folks of all ages too.

I agree. We were at a party one night and an older friend of mine (70) was having a good time, joking around making everyone laugh etc. After a while it happened that only he and I were standing alone. He suddenly said out of the blue, "there is a lot of weird stuff going on in this world that most people do not have a clue about"!!!! My head snapped towards him and said " you know about this, like Bush and the nazi connection, 9-11 etc." ?
He said "you bet"!
I had never mentioned anything to him prior, but it was though he knew that I was aware of things. It totally blew me away.
My wife and I have had other older people that are not on computers come out with similar statements.
