While reading Public Parts by Jeff Jarvis I stumbled upon this little gem from one of my favorite authors.
Anything that is in the world when you’re born is normal and ordinary and is just a natural part of the way the world works. Anything that’s invented between when you’re fifteen and thirty-five is new and exciting and revolutionary and you can probably get a career in it. Anything invented after you’re thirty-five is against the natural order of things.
— Douglas Adams, The Salmon of Doubt
So relax and enjoy, it is not as dangerous and scary as it people would have you believe.
