[quote=Anonymous]I was born in 1960, my parents in 1925 and 1927. My father was in the Navy in WWII. I'm number 6 of 7 children and technically a boomer but don't really identify with boomers or Gen X. If I had to choose, I would say boomer because of influence from my siblings. The betweeners of the boomers and Gen X are often called Generation Jones, from Wikipedia: Jonesers were given huge expectations as children in the 1960s, and then confronted with a different reality as they came of age during a long period of mass unemployment and when de-industrialization arrived full force in the mid-late 1970s and 1980s, leaving them with a certain unrequited "jonesing" quality for the more prosperous days of the past.
