There is absolutely exceptions, and the whole generation thing is a bit ridiculous if carried too far. I didn't take your point that seriously, just saw an opportunity to provide my own example. I will also add that my father (a Boomer/silent gen) was a smart person, mechanically gifted, even a patent holder, yet he could not for the life of him figure out computers. It was a baffling disconnect. My son, who I mentioned as being far smarter in tech than I could be now, is not mechanically inclined and will admit to that. So yeah, everyone has their skills... if anything I think of myself as a jack of many trades that I'm decent in, but none that I excel high in.
