it's not a concept they are familiar with and have grown up with and learned, at theor age most don't feel the need to learn therefore become afraid of technology.

It's a usual thing. People fear what they don't understand.

You're a dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane, Assuming that old people can't comprehend or get technology. Considering that you didn't give a specific quantity of older people; it wouldn't be true. You're going to have to be way more specific when you're talking about older people. So please, next time be more specific about the quantity of people that you were talking about.

Are you being sarcastic, because if you aren't then that's fine but if you are then you could tell me why?

"dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane"

You do know what that is, right?

Respect the science!

"You're a dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane"

*googles*

Dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT) is a colorless, crystalline, tasteless, and almost odorless organochlorine known for its insecticidal properties and environmental impacts. First synthesized in 1874, DDT's insecticidal action was discovered by the Swiss chemist Paul Hermann ###### in 1939. It was used in the second half of World War II to control malaria and typhus among civilians and troops. After the war, DDT was also used as an agricultural insecticide and its production and use duly increased.[5] Müll###### awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medi########r his discovery of the high efficiency of DDT as a contact poison against several arthropods" in 1948.[6]

In 1962, ###### ######## book Silent Spring was published. It cataloged environmental impacts that coincided with widespread use of DDT in agriculture in the United States, and it questioned the logic of broadcasting potentially dangerous ######### into the environment with little prior investigation of their environment and health effects. The book claimed that DDT and other pesticides had been shown to cause cancer and that their agricultural use was a threat to wildlife, particularly birds. Its publication was a seminal event for the environmental movement and resulted in a large public outcry that eventually led, in 1972, to a ban on DDT's agricultural use in the United States.[7] A worldwide ban on agricultural use was formalized under the Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants, but its limited and still-controversial use in disease vector control continues,[8][9] because of its effectiveness in reducing malarial infections, balanced by environmental and other health concerns.

Along with the passage of the Endangered Species Act, the United States ban on DDT is a major factor in the comeback of the bald eagle (the national bird of the United States) and the peregrine falcon from near-extinction in the contiguous United States.[10][11]

Just because they use it doesn't mean they like and embrace the experience, most if the time it's a hastle.
