Why wouldn't they. If MMOs would have appealed to them at 20, they are pretty much the same person at 70, just some aging on the exterior. The interior is the same as it ever was, at least mine is and no, I'm not 70 lol!Tome of the Ancienthttp://tomeoftheancient.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3878753035017181139.post-64068672499591593032012-04-01T06:14:40.874-07:002012-04-01T06:14:40.874-07:00Ah, you kids.

There was this book that came out a few years ago called Born Digital by Marc Prensky, calling those born past a certain year "digital immigrants." I have great issues with this considering my own parents and my and mine are more "digital pioneers." Consider the Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, and even the founders of Blizzard. All parents, too. Some folks, no matter the age, don't have an affinity for things that go beep-bop-bang. I have a good friend who is much more into getting her hands dirty, she's a very organic kind of person, and has never communicated via email or other social media tools. That kind of brings up a spin-off post, doesn't it, about technical saavy? <br /><br />Thank you for your comment, and I clicked on your blog, saw Spoiler Alert, and promptly walked out the door until my beta shows up!

Purely because I could never imagine my dad firing up WoW and kicking some dragon butt. But it is so common that it really shouldn't be an issue! Equally, I don't have very much patience for the young and (possibly) immature, but I've always done my best to give them the benefit of the doubt. But I am guilty for this!Jaediahttp://menagerie.jaedia.net/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3878753035017181139.post-58960779976963188152012-03-31T15:32:16.381-07:002012-03-31T15:32:16.381-07:00He is quite the charmer, that young man.

Though sometimes I let one of those young'uns know that I'm old enough to be their mama.Navimiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08504557372435466448noreply@blogger.com
