Just because an old geezer like you can't learn doesn't mean the kids 
can't.

You see only obstacles, kids won't unless they've been too ingrained with 
school where everything has to be spelled out to them before the 
experience.

When the first computer store opened here in 1977, the place was empty 
every time I went in.  But then eventually it got busy, all kinds of kids 
going in to play with the computers.  They found their way without any 
help.

The kids will scrounge a keyboard somewhere, and be off immediately, while 
a month later you're still trying to cook up something that isn't 
necessary at all.
