The problem with doing something for a really long time (I learned linux in the late 90's myself), is that you don't really remember how you learned it. Also, I don't remember what I knew back then and how I solved problems, but I was just a kid, it's normal to not really remember how you learned something. With that comes the problem of not being able to really know where to start when you want to share your knowledge with people who start out. There is a communication gap. I think the best thing is when people who start but have gotten just a bit further share their experiences with starters. They are on the same wavelength as to which problems to conquer.
