I have a feeling that few of todays millennials would have survived the days of mail order. They are spoiled by Amazon.

Not just Amazon. EVERYTHING today is instantaneous. You used to have to wait for the newspaper to read about what happened yesterday; then along came the news that was 15 minutes originally on TV; then Turner made it 24/7.
Patience is supposed to be a virtue; I think more young folks should learn how to play chess instead of fast-paced action videos and maybe they will start to realize that not everything in life is immediate
Off my soap box now
