Thanks threedogs, I liked your post a lot. My tone may have been harsh, not everybody gets it right the first time (nor should they) I just really hate it when people look down their nose--everybody gets a freebie!
So I've got to ask, is your user name a reference to fallout 3 or is it because you actually have three dogs, or other?

I disagree, growing up with technology and being comfortable with it and loving the results of it will inevitably drive innovation. It's the mentality it gives you. To people that are scared by technology learning the simplest things proves difficult, and just in the mindset. As a computer guy, I believe I am qualified to make this statement. I see it everyday. Also, I believe the love of technology is what drives many to the sciences. Some of us just feel "more at home" on a computer than anything else.
