Let's not make the inevitable mistake of assuming what was an essential skill for one generation is going to matter fuck all for most of the next generation.
Old people still think it's outageous if you can write a check, read an analog clock, read/write cursive... All things that most millennials might "need" to do less than once a year.
How is reading a clock something you do less than once a year
I know how to read an analogue clock but never once in my life has it been easier/ more convenient to read one than it is to pull out my magic light box I always have on me and look at the big bright numbers in the centre of the screen.
