In her 60s and 70s, Mother worked in a public library. She called me up one day, crying, because the library was going to install a computer system. I assured her that it would be all right.
I visited them a few years later, and Mother was extolling on the wonderfulness of the system. She said it was hard to imagine how they managed without it.
