(iGen/Generation I) has reduced immeasurably and they can no longer focus on a task
for more than a few minutes. Technology is, of course, the accused in this

our fingertips. I’m not really sure where I stand on this but some musical experiences I've had recently led me to wonder if there might be some truth in the claim.
