Arrogance of youth...: Yagotta, I couldn't reply to your previous message regarding Gen-X vs Baby Boomers, so will do it here.

It's good to see someone on this forum with a memory that extends back to before yesterday. You're right - it's the Boomers who conceived and designed the whole shebang. The X-Gen has done a marvelous job adopting and extending the technology, but they still have yet to come up with anything as conceptually sweeping and revolutionary.

Anyway, thanks for defending the Boomers.; Posted by: dsentman@... Posted on: 06/23/05 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
