Dear Baby Boomers…
It’s been forty years. No one cares. The world does not — and never did — revolve around you. So please scurry off and die already, and take your self-serving myth-making right along with you.
Thanks,
Everyone else.

The question is whether, as a scion of your generation, you feel comfortable speaking for everyone.

Speaking for Generation X, I agree!
“Generation Jones”? Just what we needed, another title for a group of self-centered and self-interested people to use when they talk incessantly about themselves!
Interesting blog. Arguably, the biggest legacy of Woodstock is its huge impact on the real children of the sixties: Generation Jones (born 1954-1965, between the Boomers and Generation X). This USA TODAY op-ed speaks to the relevance today of the sixties counterculture impact on GenJones: http://www.usatoday.com/printedition/news/20090127/column27_st.art.htm
Google Generation Jones, and you
