Geezer!!! (UT is, if I'm not mistaken, maybe 3 or 4 years older than me if that much.) Make room for my rocking chair!

39. They have probably never used carbon paper and do not know what cc and bcc mean.

The list could also have included ditto machines... man, there was nothing like the smell of freshly-mimeographed spelling worksheets in the morning!

43. They have never known exactly what to call the rock star formerly and presently known as Prince.

Well let's be honest, they probably haven't CARED!!

I might also have thrown in something to the effect that they've never known a world without the Sony Walkman. I think it's difficult for people who aren't old enough to remember the Walkman's introduction to realize what radical changes this seemingly trivial invention brought about.
