They can't add, multiply, divide or subtract. Some of them can barely read, much less spell or write a simple, coherent declarative sentence.

I'm surprised at some of the illiterate gibberish that some of my own friends send me.

When I was growing up my Dad owned a small C-store. I learned how to count back change without the help of the register by counting "up". You rarely see this any more except in older folks. However, the other day I ran across a kid (16-18) that actually counted back my change without the use of the register. I was shocked and amazed to see this.
