Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around a request for assistance with a project that involves gathering personal reflections from older individuals regarding their experiences and perspectives on various historical and technological topics. The scope includes personal narratives related to war, military drafts, the atomic bomb, technological advances, and significant historical events.

Discussion Character

  • Homework-related
  • Meta-discussion

Main Points Raised

  • One participant requests help in gathering responses from individuals over 21, specifically seeking personal insights on how they spent their teenage years and their views on historical events.
  • Another participant suggests that finding elderly individuals online might be beneficial for the request.
  • A third participant expresses skepticism about the feasibility of obtaining personal information such as phone numbers and full names from a public forum.
  • A participant mentions a similar assignment their daughter had, indicating a reluctance to share personal information but questioning whether the requester has family members who could be approached for answers.
  • One participant briefly notes WWII as a significant war that industrialized, although no further elaboration is provided.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants generally agree on the impracticality of sharing personal information in a public forum, but there is no consensus on how to best assist the original request. The discussion remains unresolved regarding the best approach to gather the needed information.

Contextual Notes

Limitations include the potential difficulty in finding suitable respondents who meet the age criteria and the ethical considerations surrounding the sharing of personal information online.

Ok I need help with this questions.. would someone be kind enough to honestly answer them?

It's a project and I need at least 25 years between two individuals, same questions for the two.

I need people older than 21 =-/ and it would really help if I could get at least 1/2 a page typed double spaced... HEH!

thanks for those who are willing to help... I am looking for older folks so if soemone could maybe ask their father or granpa.. it would be great.. thanks.

I need your email or phone # and your full name.


How did you spend your free time when you were a teenager (what did you do to pass the time)?

The questions: (note if you can answer only five but half a page each that would be great, thanks
-------------------------------------------------------------------


What was the first war that had an impact on your life and why/how did it have such a big impact?






How did a military draft during war time or peace time affect you and the people around you?





What are your thoughts on the Atomic Bomb, do you think it was just for the USA (President Truman) to have dropped the two bombs in Japan?





What have been some technological advances that you think have been revolutionary (greatly affected/changed) to the world?






What historical event had a positive or negative impact on your life other than war.

If someone could point me to some eldery people online that would be great also...
 
Nobody at any public forum is going to give you their telephone number and full name. You might get an email address, but nothing more.
 
My daughter had an assignment at school just like this. I'd help you Euphoriet, but Cod is right, I don't give out personal information.

You don't have anyone in your family you can ask?
 
WWII - the war that industrialized.
