another, along the samelines as the last

Something I do not understand is that we seem more and more discouraged--and unwilling--to have and to use imagination. Watching films even from 1950 is 'boring.' Reading books from then? Even worse. I should amend that. Most people I know read maybe a book a year. Or less. Not everybody but most. Everything is obvious, nothing is left to the imagination, we all have ADD. What do we blame? Society? Barney? I don't know but my kids are going to read a damn lot of books.
