Chain mail joke by the looks of things.  Seen it before.  I don't think
it really should be posted to a public mailing list.  Also as someone
who has worked in aged care, I don't find people with dementia struggle
to connect with the world as something particularly funny.  

As a community we should be encouraging people 50+ to use technology.
My mother in law who is in her 60s is a reasonable happy ubuntu user.
She struggles a bit, but this is mostly an issue of experience and
confidence.

Cheers
