    It worries me the IBS was a serious political contender at one point. He thinks technology should be simpler [^]. He can't have used an iPhone/iPad then, a button with a screen. Oh if you are not a UKian, the eponymous Old lady can be seen in this is cartoon[^]

    Sort of a cross between Lawrence of Arabia and Dilbert.[^]

    A Dead ringer for Kate Winslett[^]

      I used to love Viz magazine, haven't seen one for years. Isn't IDS essentially suggesting that old people are incapable of using devices that younger people are? Sounds like discrimination to me.

        Ahhhh - the eternal call to make things simpler and more complex at the same time - usually coming from people who do not make much use of modern technology rant rant rant...

          Pretty much, I think he might be confusing his inability to, what he doubtlessly calls, "work the Internet" with other people's ability to use tech. He is only 7 years off retirement after all.

            I thought you were talking about the lady that did not believe in birth control that met that fellow and created what they referred to as a "bunch".
