Old people and the internet

    I just read a post where a 52 year old woman posted a huge diatribe about a certain subject....not a big deal but it was used with multiple sized fonts and well just plainly over sized. I have noticed this is a problem with most older ones who post on the internet? Whats up with that? Do people with in a certain age group who get online just love to make their emails and posts as tacky as possible? Is it just bad eye sight?

    Now believe me I have seen plenty of older ones on this site who seem to be working just fine with font size and colors, so I know it isn't all older people that do this. The whole thing that got me started on this was when my co workers mom emailed her and it mysteriously was almost is the same format as my Mom's. Then my other co worker noted the same thing.

    I am sure plenty of you have parents who commit this same internet faux pa almost daily.
