[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nah, it's just a few bitter people who can't stand their parents and instead of accepting that their families suck they want to make it a generation-wide problem.

Btw, the poster is incredibly easy to taunt. [/quote]

I don't think it's just a few bitter people.

Consider what the boomers have consumed, versus what they've produced.

Bill Gates and Steve Jobs were boomers.  You'd be typing your messages on carbon paper and mailing them to the newspaper without BB innovations.  [/quote]

Actually, in typical boomer fashion, these guys were lucky--they were in the right place at the right time in terms of education, advancements in technology, etc. I think it was Malcolm Gladwell who discovered that an astonishing number of visionary-CEO types were born in or around 1955.

Not saying they weren't smart people, but without these advantages, they likely would not have figured out an alternative to carbon paper, either.[/quote]Damn! I was born in 1955!  What happened to me? ;-)[/quote]
