I can clearly remember a night in 1995 with our friends all sitting around the dinner table drinking wine with all our rugrats running around the house, and we were in a conversation that was astounding to me. My friend Ellyn said "we will be able to go shopping" on the computer. I could not wrap my head around that. Email wasn't even a thing yet. Shopping on the computer was a concept beyond all our wee little brains.

Hehe, it is crazy thing about it. I remember times like that well. Things like people asking but what will you use it for? About email and shaving their head when you said what for, lol

Oh I def asked "why do you need an app? ; what's all the fuss about?" lol....I"ve always been a bit slow when it comes to change. However, I am way ahead of many. People say what is steem? I say, well, you've heard of bitcoin right? blank stares.....

Haha, that makes you wildly ahead of the curve!!
