There is a quote which I vaguely remember seeing on this list.
It went something like this: (yeah my rendering is poor)

For a new technology:
  If you are a kid when it comes out, you just take it as a matter of course
  If you are a young adult, then it becomes a hot topic for discussion
  If you are past middle-age you never get it

Anyone knows/remembers it?
