The reason I am not interested in anecdotal evidence is because it's clear to me that human nature tends us in the direction of forgetting our own faults but being painfully aware of the faults of the generation that comes after us. Thus, an *apparent* decline is a fixed part of the human condition. You can finds quotes back through the ages on the decline of young people.
