@ambrown Also wasn't it the generation before@neiltyson that did those things? Gen Xers were around to watch, too young to do at that time. -
@cshannonpdx he was born in 1958, was old enough to vote for Reagan, which is sort of my arbitrary point of blame. -
@ambrown so yeah, he was a kid when we first landed on the moon

@neiltyson@giova989 when i was my age, we made all of human knowledge available to the majority of people for pennies -
@neiltyson@giova989 when i was my age we gave people the power to communicate with one another across the globe instantly -
@neiltyson@giova989 when i was my age we made lifecasting a reality, making it possible for everyone to document oppression as it happened -
@neiltyson@giova989 when i was my age people could coordinate political uprisings and revolutions spontaneously over Twitter -
@neiltyson@giova989 and when i was my age, people actually started to build the things that were supposed to be built when you were my age
