   For many of us there is a "point of no return". I think we reach that   
   point much quicker when my age (90).   
      
   Our kids, grands and great grands have a cell phone in their hands   
   24/7/365 (seems like); I make and receive a few calls each week on   
   mine.   
      
   Our sons have at least one computer, and iPad and a cell phone - all   
   open. I use one at a time and some not for a day or two. They charge   
   the phone every night - mine is usually dead for a day or two before I   
   charge. It's not dementia - I just don't care.   
      
   I wonder if Siri, or Cortana would kiss where the sun don't shine.   
      
   But that door bell that lets you look at the cell phone to see who is   
   there might be worthwhile.   
      
   I don't know any Joneses to keep up with.
