He thinks the net is just one big scam, a business in his head is four walls a roof and a solid product. Talking about traffic, affiliates, or anything else flies right over his head.

This old lady neighbor told me to "be careful of that Internet" when I told her I built websites. From the tone of her voice, it seemed like "the Internet" had killed someone. Maybe she read a news article about a murder that had a reference to the Internet and her 2+2 meant the Internet killed the person. I dunno. Just funny how some old'uns perceive technology when they don't understand it.
But seriously, I shudder at the thought of a future where I might have to call a child / grandchild to come and program my holographic media player. Hopefully, that'll never happen.
