That’s the first thing that came to mind.

I ran out and bought me an HD flatscreen TV when they became affordable. I adapted to computers and the internet pretty quickly when I was ready about 15 years ago. I had no problem adapting to digital cameras.

Exactly. People adapt to new technology mighty damn quick when it's something they want, but no amount of finger-shaking can shove it down their throats when they don't. You'd think the whole history of "green energy" would show that. Until it's cheap, reliable, and convenient, it's a non-starter, and no amount of Gaia guilting will make people change their way of living, no matter what they pay lip service to.
