We can’t do things today that were accomplished in the 1960s.

We couldn’t do in the 60s what we said we did in the 60s

We can’t do things today that were done WITH COMPUTERS that were done with SLIDE RULES in the 1960’s!!

We have become more stupid,, leaving the thinking to machines.

(I would bet a dollar to a doughnut, that if you presented a slide rule and manual to any kid these days, they would turn to their whizbang phone, first, before asking you about it, to figure out this strange sliding piece of plastic!))
