Looking to comments on an internet post to asses the maturity of a generation is like indexing Hacker News comments to determine the technical prowess of the mid-west. People who write comments on blogs are, by their nature, on the outsides of the statistical bell curve. Just as the average hacker news reader doesn't represent the technical capacity of an average internet reader. If you want to make informed guesses about the state of a generation...please stop reading blogs and, furthermore, stop reading the comments.
