    it is learning, not youth, that makes a person be not-living-in-the-past,

    & there isn’t any substitute for getting old-enough to understand systems-of-systems thinking, as some “grandmothers & grandfathers”, as the Indigenous people call 'em, can.

    Age isn’t, of itself, sufficient to judge whether someone’s competent to do the work they currently are doing.
