People who say they do not need or want to use the world wide web are insane. I find this to be false. People are not insane just because they don't think like you. You may want to use the internet to be quicker, but they may have traditional views. Amish people do not use the internet, they live in villages and work together like they did in the olden days. They can learn without the use of a computer. Older people may also want to stick to older uses of finding information, like books. New technology for older people is hard. For example my Grandmother on my mother's side gets easily confused with the TV remote to DVR things, and when her computer is not a certain way she gets extremely scared and calls one of her children on the phone. My grandparents on my dad's side once got a computer, but it was hard for them to use the mouse so they sent it back to where they got it. Older people are not insane if they have difficulty with new technology, it just means they aren't as technologically knowledgeable as those who use it.
The library has a great source of information. It has every topic in life there, and if you can't find a book in one library, you can always find it in the next. Although this may not be as fast as quickly searching something on Google, it still works. Music can also be played on CD's and record players. It's old school but it still works. If you want to type something, you can use a type writer. Not using the internet is not insane.
