Just in case you weren't feeling too old today, this will certainly change things. 

• The people who started university  this year were born in 1992.  
• They are too young to remember the space shuttle blowing up.  
• Their lifetime has always included AIDS. 
• Bottle caps have always been screw off and plastic. 
• The CD was introduced 3 years before they were born. 
• They have always had an answering machine 
• They cannot fathom not having a remote control. 
• Popcorn has always been cooked in the microwave.
• They never took a swim and thought about Jaws.
• They can't imagine what hard contact lenses are.
• They don't know who Mork was or where he was from. 
• They do not care who shot J. R. And have no idea who J. R. even is.
• They don't have a clue how to use a typewriter.

 It is good to have friends who know about these things and are still alive and kicking!!!! 

 Brilliant stuff, Fred - I love it.
