We were much better at retaining information too. It wasn't available at the tip of your fingers, so we put effort into remembering it. Nowadays I don't remember anything except for old movie quotes, and stuff pertinent to work. I think the constant influx of information we experience now is interpreted by the mind as noise, and it goes in one eyeball and out the other.
