In the 'Baby Boomer Generation' (of which I am a part), this divide was marked by the invention of Satellite Technology and the Internet, when we can recall the times of 'prior' and 'post'.

In the 'XYZ Generations' who knows what will divide the social classes? Maybe bio-implants or some form of Telekinesis and they will go "remember the internet? how ancient and archaic was that?"

I have three grandchildren. They would relate without any problem to your post simply because their world is a completely normal world. It's only strange to us aged.
