Guest Comment Tue, Oct 14, 2008, 10:24 pm CDT Why.... let me tell you something... when old curmudgeons like me were in our 50's and 70's we didn't have no internet to search for information. We had to walk ten miles down to the library, in the snow, and search ALL WEEK for the information... AND WE LIKED IT. We didn't need no fancy magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) scans to tell us we was getting any smarter neither.
