Abstract: Abstract If you are a child in a SEW country, and the first generation educated for a new global world, you will approach the challenge of rapid technology development not wondering what has changed, but thirsty to be part of the change. It is that same zest to succeed in a new world that brought waves of immigrants from China and Ireland and then Italy, Germany, Hungary, India, and Eastern Europe to the United States. For these immigrants, everything was new, and so they embraced the change with an almost evangelical zeal. They succeeded and insisted their children succeed, in turn.
