This was something that was being shared between Manjusha and me. What 
I/We meant was that even today whether you look at 40 years old people 
or early 20's youth they still do not know that something like FOSS exists.

I have also been under the impression as most of us are that people know 
about FOSS generally but the truth is, it's only when you work in 
companies which use FOSS then you come to know about it.

And for the 40 year olds, most of them have a stable job/life so they 
are not much enthusiastic to learn these 'new-fangled' ideas as I have 
been told/shared by people over time and in different workshops.
