The older and the younger

From 1848 to 1977 the young was wiser than the elder, since science, economy and society progressed at sku-rocket spped. But today, the generation of 45-50 is wiser than the Millennial, I reckon, since this amazing progress has slowed down (even computer revolution is in its mature stage) and experience matters again, as mattered for millennia before the Industrial revolution. And the youngsters, at least the more intelligent ones, ask the elder -at least the more intelligent, to transmit to them wisdom, experience, and the sense of history. At least this is my experience.

But perhaps I am completely mistake and other wonders await us.
