Many evenings of my youth were spent listening to Radio Caroline's "Personal Top 30s", from 6-9pm and 9pm-midnight on Friday, Saturday and Sunday evenings. My friends and I would write down, swap, be inspired by and gently criticise each others' choices, but none of us ever got round to posting ours in, and our chance vanished into the North Sea with the Mi Amigo in March 1980.
However, since 2008 I have listened almost constantly to Caroline, which plays "Personal Top 15s" every weekday at 10am CET, but again, I've not summoned the nerve to send mine in.

It takes a long time to become young - Pablo Picasso
All generations are different when they are young, then they become bankers (if they fall into grievous sin) or lawyers or doctors and they adopt the practice and disciplines necessary for their profession or task. Professions have more in common across the generations than the generations do across professions - Dave Snowden http://www.cognitive-edge.com/blogs/dave/2011/03/digital_primitives.php
World Bank data showed that, in developing countries, 30% of those under the age of 25 use the Internet, compared to 23% of those 25 years and older. However, 70% of the under 25-year-olds-a total of 1.9 billion-are not online yet: a huge potential if developing countries can connect schools and increase school enrollment rates.
By 2050, the global population aged 60 or over is projected to exceed the number of people under 15 for the first time in history.
