Generation gaps and the Internet

I just stumbled across a blog by an elderly man in Nova Scotia. He's 93 and has a blog AND a Wikipedia page.

I'm more amazed by the fact of his net-presence than the actual writing. It's just so shocking I guess that someone that old would know or care about blogs and Wikipedia, and really incredible that he's using these mediums to give himself some virtual immortality, and maybe to bridge a huge generation.

I kind of wish all my elderly relatives would start a blog now. Not necessarily for the typical day to day life stuff, but just to share their thoughts on their lives and the world.
