Agreed. But I'm still a little surprised by this. I would expect anyone at least 30 yro to have /some/ recollection of what happened, if not a good understanding. Or to have the curiosity to find out what did. I'm 31 myself, but knew what was happening with the bubble during highschool (thanks pud and F'd company).

Maybe the typical age on HN is 21? :)

Young people are just smarter, apparently. Sit back and enjoy the show.
