I am an older voter and I spend a lot of time on the computer, Much of it right here.
I would bet that many here in Free Republic are retired and spending a lot of time here.
The idea that the older generation hasn't been able to stay engaged is simply laughable. My mother will be 85 in February. She didn't turn on a computer until a little over five hears ago. Although she doesn't "surf the web" she is a part of what I call "an old fart network" that blast emails several internet news articles between each other each and every day.
Sorta funny because I think she believes she has a scoop every time she sends her children something...
