This makes a very profound point!
It reminds me of a great part in Tom Brokaw's wonderful tribute to the 18-22 year olds of "then," "The Greatest Generation;" he talks about how on a Halloween Night in the late 1950s, some teenagers in his small S Dakota town had wreaked a little mischief on the community. An older man was in the post office the following morning complaining about the errant teenagers and their night's work of mischief. In the story, Brokaw's mom said to the gent, "Oh, now; what were YOU doing back when you were that age, huh?" He replied "Storming ashore at the Battle for Iwo Jima." And he turned and walked out.
