I graduated from high school in 1969 so you know what generation I'm in. We were a revolting bunch of young people and I remember thinking "these long haired, pot smoking hippies of my generation will someday run our country". These long haired pot smoking hippies grew up into adults who developed most of the modern conveniences and conveyances we have today. It's true our parent's generation started the development of modern technology during WW2 but we, their children could have dropped the ball and not run with it. Instead, we carried it and developed it. One example we all can relate to is the cars we drive. Our parent's generation developed cars that pooped out at 100,000 miles. Our generation took that technology and refined it into cars that can go 2 1/2 times that far or more. Whether we like this expensive newfangled stuff or not, it took a lot of brains and energy to develop it, and that came from OUR generation. And cars are just a miniscule example of what we've gained.
I have a feeling our generation has dropped the ball morality-wise. We have worked overly hard trying to beat the Jonses instead of building our financial equity. Our children have become spoiled by the technologies we so proudly have built. Sophisticated machines do the work our muscles and minds used to perform leading to laziness. I'd better quit!!!! Jim

I remember when I was a kid my dad sometimes would tuck my brother and I in at night and we would ask him questions about his childhood on the farm. To this day, it's some of the best stories I've ever heard. And now, I'm so glad that I asked those questions, and if I were a little smarter i
