-- Modern Life is Rubbish



http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/3706800.stm

---------------
Only 14% of those asked felt the internet had improved life 
Everything was better in the 1950s - except washing machines, central
heating and inside toilets, according to a survey of people aged above 50.

92% said they had been "happy in the 50s without any of these modern
things".
---------------

I wonder how many of those above 50, i.e. born after 1954, are old enough to
comment on the 1950s.  And of those that are old enough, I wonder how many
are too old.

"Everything seemed so much more affable, honest and direct."

Actress and friend of the Kray twins, Barbara Windsor

I've just shown your e-mail to a colleague of mine whose son is Islamic, and she's fucking furious.
