More recent episodes that put this fact on display include recent online attacks on actress Christie Alley (SP?). Many keep saying she was lying about not taking certain vaccines because they are required in the US. At least one posted the vaccine schedule for children born today. They have no idea that many simply were not available when people my age and my parents’ age where children and that we got the diseases and survived them before they were.
Another situation is from a decade or so ago. Commenters on the website for a Japanese newspaper brought up a case of a Japanese male college student in France who murdered a female classmate at ate her. One commenter said that he did not believe the story was real because he searched online and could not find any contemporary articles on the crime. The fact that it took place before tech allowed for the posting of news online and that it would take some to actually go through the old news papers at a library and physically type it (at the time of the discussion OCR was not ready available.) in. Far too many adults seem to believe that life has always been as it is. They have no clue not only what we had growing up, they also have no idea of what we did not have. How do you convince such people of anything?
