I too love technology but have to agree that some things were better "back in the day". I was born in the 1950's and remember playing outside after dark, never locking our doors and neighbors looking out for each other. I also remember paying under $0.20/gallon for gas. My buddy had a VW bug and if we had a dollar, we could cruise all night! It certainly was a simpler time.
However, I would guess that in the 50's my parents were saying things like "remember when gas was a nickel and when we used to sit around the radio as a family and use our imagination instead of watching this crappy black and white TV that doesn't play any decent shows!
