Post #121,373 by Silverlock 10/15/03 8:34:39 PM Reply	Wide brush Seeing as how I am a member of the boomer generation, and you are also, if I remember correctly, your brush paints a bit widely. There are boomers who are not corporate drones, lawyers, or other members of the soulless. Writing off an entire generation may be a bit on the extreme side, don't ya think? ----------------------------------------- It is much harder to be a liberal than a conservative. Why? Because it is easier to give someone the finger than it is to give them a helping hand. Mike Royko

Post #121,410 by deSitter 10/16/03 7:34:32 AM Reply	Re: Doesn't get you off the hook. You know what is meant, and I'm betting you mostly agree. I'm ashamed to be part of it. What the hell did we/they accomplish? The total ruination of a great country. Everything of value has been utterly shitcanned. The newer generations are looking even worse - that's our legacy, to perpetuate the total social, economic, mental and spiritual disaster we/they created. -drl
Post #121,412 by Another Scott 10/16/03 7:52:21 AM Reply	What have "we/they" done? How about, for example, the [link\|http://www.macarthur.org/programs/fel/winners_overview.htm\|2003 MacArthur fellows]? Considering "boomers" are people born in the US between 1946 and 1964, you're using an awfully broad brush in your criticisms - even broader than your usual tirade against Republicans. :-/ Carry on. Cheers, Scott.
