Interesting take on the subject.
The problem that the young people don't understand is that they are losing the ability to think and solve.
In the UNLIKLEY event please note UNLIKLEY EVENT, we do lose the internet and power, it will be the old folks that have the knowledge to rebuild.
If the young cant look it up on social media or google they will be lost.

I was told of a disagrement between two age groups.
You decide the right.
Young person telling the older person, that he was not needed anymore, that everything he needs to know is right here at his fingertipss on the smartphone.
Old person told the young well yes thats true, but where did the smart phone get all that information? and if your battery dies and your in a pickle well your done for.

No age group needs to be disrespectful to the other. Your not wrong because your old, and your not wrong because your young.

But yea I being old find the new batch of young to be a bit over the top when it comes to the old. Including and especially my own children.

But this is like playing tic-tac-toe there is and never will be a winner on the subject.
Good thing books will still work then my guy, the only difference is the amount of effort you would have to go through to find the information. We may be able to find pretty much anything we want instantaneously thanks to the way we leverage technology doesn't mean we're cooked if SHTF ya dig. We out here straight up brackin tryin to secure the bag by any means necessary in the most efficient way possible. There's a difference between young and being uneducated. Most goofy old crackheads I know aren't under 45. My elders are the first to blabber about technology and young people but who do they call after they download a stupid game with bloat ware and viruses all up in it and they can't open up facebook to post a bunch of trash.

dawg, its whatever. We have to remember that our generation is trying to fix what the last generation did. Its ok, we move on. No need to argue over R2R, were a community. We think stuff about them and they will think stuff about us. We know more stuff on things than them, yet, they know more stuff about things we have no idea about.

Keep in mind though, Generation X held our hand and were too helpful to us millennials and Gen Z kids.

Nothing a dozen or so mini-guns and some A10's cannot sort out. I look forward to telling my Grand kids about the Area 51 massacre of 2019.
We haveto make sure to tell them: If you didnt hear the Brrrt, you are most likely dead.

I seriously hope people won't be foolish enough to get killed over something silly. That shot on sight stuff...they mean it.

Sorry I am not going to take your bait and run with it.
But thanks for your thoughts.

Hey everyone just wanted to take a minute to remind everyone that we at R2R strive to keep a family friendly community. There have been several posts removed from this thread because they were not family friendly. Please keep in mind that we take being nice and family friendly very seriously. Thanks for understanding!
