Boomers dissed

I was so ashamed of my dissing my fellow boomers over John Lennon that I put in on my screedblog...

But this guy got it right:

"The ferment of the '60s and '70s -- when boomers changed the world, or thought they did -- faded long ago. Nostalgic pride in the achievements of that era now mixes with skepticism: Have the boomers collectively betrayed their youthful idealism? Have they been self-centered to the point of shortchanging their children?"

The answer is yes and yes....
