You think that also was true around 1360 when the 2nd bubonic plague in Europe
was over after having caused the death of 1/3 of the population?
 
But in general a true statement ... I think ... though I still fondly remember
the days way back when I spent my vacations in the countryside at my grandma's
house. Water from a well, cooking on a wood stove, no TV, no telephone,
getting milk from the farmer down the street straight from the cow, early
morning radio listening to messages for colombophiles as that would be the
indication for the weather, watching the altitude at which the swallows flew
to determine if rain was on its way ... the simple uncomplicated life. If you
were not selected in a team during a game ... live with it ... if the coffee
was too hot, blow to cool it, going fishing with just a line, a stick and a
worm, no hook ... fish were so gullible they'd choke on it.
 
Now there's an app for everything.
