talking with my son and nephews about this stuff ...it clearly comes across as the norm these days

Young people are young people and ever have been, and they always have less patience and less will to "work for it " than 'we' believe to have had back then, be it 2013, 1983 or 1883...

different. As long as you fight changes with a "everything is worse today" or "this was good enough for Granpa, it should be good enough for you" attitude, you are fighting a loosing battle and become history yourself...
