Hehe, i had a look at your top comments in the previous post and he appeared in all of them so I took a guess. Wish I could bring my father here too, too bad he doesn't even know to turn the PC on :(

It's never too late to teach an old dog new tricks, despite the adage.
My great grandmother learned how to email and loved it. Sure, she generally emailed in all caps because it was easier for her to see, but I'm convinced it's one of the things that kept her going. She died just a couple of months shy of her 108th birthday.
Think of that. She was born in 1904. She remembered the first car drive through her town and thought, "Where do they keep the horses?" Within her lifetime she saw the advancement of all computer technology, and she accepted the challenge! She learned Spanish at 80 years old. We even have a video of her trying DDR at 103. ^_^
That's the kind of attitude to have and may you too find her miracle--when she died, it was peacefully in her sleep. She retained all of her senses, including her brilliant mind, to the end. She even walked to and from church that morning, unassisted. It's never to late. Keep trying new things, and always, always encourage others to do so too. :)
