INTRODUCTION
Baby boomers (those now 46 to 64) arrayed against the World War
II and Depression generations. Now it's "millennials" (those 29
or younger) and Gen Xers (from 30 to 45) . These generational
boundaries are somewhat arbitrary, and other individual
differences (income, religion, education, geography) usually
count for more. Still, generational contrasts are one way to
examine your life and values.
