Are* older generations stupid or younger generations smarter?

Interesting thread...all I can say is I wish I was born 50 years sooner.

The older I get, the smarter my dad was...

I had a similar revelation later in life, but slightly different. I remember looking at my dad and thinking, "He's as screwed up as I am."

I'm 58. To this day my mom says I was born at least fifty years too late. I take that as a compliment.

While I enjoy some technology I enjoy the simpler life. The victory garden lifestyle for those old enough to remember.
