I come from a different era. We horse packed. We had to be smarter than the problem.
Push a button and the sun rises, push it twice and the fish start biting. Twist a dial and campfire smoke blows the other way. No wait, that was last year. This year we have a virtual campfire. But that causes a hell of a squabble over who gets the remote.
