I suspect that you might have put your finger on the nub of it all. I did not have any familiarity with computers in either elementary school or high school. I finally got to use a computer in college, but it was all punch cards and I/O clerks. Classes needing computation were taught using a slide rule. So computers were not part of my formative years and that's perhaps why I don't see the attraction of computer games--or Twitter, for that matter. --Chuck
