 However, most people below the age of 40 and nearly everyone below the age
of 30 has plenty of experience working with many different interfaces.
Cell phones, ATMs, computers, the various applications *on* those computers,
game consoles, TVs, DVD players, even *car radios* practically have GUIs now.
I see that barrier decaying away rapidly.

 Sincerely,

 "A Georgia State University study shows that U.S. senators have an uncanny
  knack for picking stocks that outpace the overall market. Professor Alan
   Ziobrowski's analysis of senators' financial disclosure data found that
   over a period of six years, the lawmakers outperformed the market by 12
      percent." - http://www.npr.org/features/feature.php?wfId=1751162
