Mike Stafford: Weekdays 10am-12pm & 1pm-2pm

Had some fun today with listeners who reacted to a book published by a professor of English in Atlanta claiming that he's wiping his hands of the "wired generation".  These are the kids in their twenties who don't know about libraries, history, math or grammar.

 

They possess few skills in rudimentary arithmetic, sentence structure and when you play Trivial Pursuit with them they call bogus on any event that happened before their birth.

 

Former vice-president and current twat Al Gore once boasted that the Internet, which he personally put in place in 1969 when he was not working at AARPNET, would grant access to every schoolkid in America to the Library of Congress.  To which cynics asked: "and what are they going to look for?".

I really don't care if Henry Morgentaler is awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for, I assume, bringing peace to households that don't want screaming babies.

 

I really don't care if Morgentaler is named a second-level member of the grey alien parliament in the Illuminati chamber.  And most people under the age of 30 wouldn't know a Morgentaler from a Olsen twin.  His fight was a generation ago.
