i mean, technically boomers were the generation before us... i just see more and
more of us acting more like them. i think a lot of that "this kind of conversat
ion was happening back in the 90s" thing was the literal boomers. i remember bei
ng asked to call into a radio show by a "tech talk" type of guy... we were talki
ng about viruses, hacking, all of the things a lot of us were doing back then, a
nd an older man called in.
during his call-in and the discussion with myself, the host, and the man he said
, "i think you should be publicly maimed", based on what he was hearing us talk
about. he had no concept of what the point of hacking or our discussion was.
anyway this is already getting long. during that call there was mention of his h
andle... and low-and-behold, i started noticing posts of his after seeing his na
me. a lot of the things i see people posting now are pretty much the same things
he was posting then.
i guess i just dont understand how so many people never rose above that type of
thinking...or how so many people fall into it as they age.

thanks much!
