Advice from Old PeopleSometimes, just sometimes, old people say something worth listening to. Ok, so it's like picking the needle out of a whole haystack of mis-remembered war stories, but those gems should be celebrated.
Tell us something worthwhile an old-type person has told you.
Note, we're leaving the definition of old up to you, you smooth-skinned youngsters.

Pfffft.Ya know, I can still remember how to use DOS. This apparently makes me an old-timer. At one place I worked we had a piece of test equipment that ran on DOS, and when we had to replace the computer no one else knew how to copy the program from the hard drive and install it on the new machine- not even the engineers who were MY OWN AGE.
I walked out of there doing my best hiphop imitation as I sang "Damn it feels good to be a DOS geek..."
