According to the late author Douglas Adams (The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy), the following rules describe our reactions to technology:
"Anything that is in the world when you were born is normal and ordinary and is just a natural way the world works."

"Anything invented after you are 35 is against the natural order of things."
