[Reading-hall-of-fame] Re: On being 90

[P Pearson]

In case I left open the possibility of such an interpretation, I did NOT
mean to imply that Ken was an old fart (if anyone deserves that label it
would be me) but that folks who have grown up as digital natives (that
label applies to no one in the RHF), tend to think of some of us elders
(not only the nonagenarians like Ken but the octo-, sexta-, septua-, and
even quinquagenerians amount us) as digital troglodytes who yearn for the
good old days and the good old technology.   They fail to recognize that
many of us are early adopters of any and all technology.  In an earlier
era, Ken and many of the rest of us would surely have been the first in
line for the scroll, the codex (with the page and the folio), the quill,
the pencil, and the yellow legal pad.

Thanks for your wise and provocative reflections, Ken.

David
