Siobahn,
Thanks for that post! Puts it all in better perspective. I am a buster (1969), child of a boomer (1947)-- pretty interesting given my "earlier" buster status. LOL

I always thought Gen X referred to 66-79, but not sure where I got that, and indeed refers more to Coupland's definition of it--McJobs, apathy and all that, than a sociological study. But it is so fitting, as well. We've got more choices than any generation prior to us, and that can breed the kind of 'what do i do with my life' confusion we've seen in another current GC thread, and in most of our own lives.

Anyway--too much thinking for a hungover friday morning. LOL
