Re: Does Generation X hate Y? Or is it just me?

I'm rather curious as to what exactly Generation X and Y think of each other. To tell you the truth I've always felt close to X in a younger brother sort of a way, I appreciate their cynicism. I've been looking up some opinions online and I've come across A LOT of hatred for our generation. I try t...

Mes Aïeux - Dégénération

About two years ago, I ran into this song (it's Canadian-French) Dégénération by a group called Mes Aïeux http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cKCRHhmHvjg&feature=related It has a generational theme. It makes me wonder how much longer the West has to survive. These are English subtitles (which are differe...

Re: Millennials will be end of the road for Progr

What a crock of bull. I want universal health care and last time I checked it was Generation Jones (people like Glenn Beck) in the media proclaiming that it's "evil socialism." I want gay people to get married and Boomers and GJ think the giant sky god will be angry with them. If you want UHC, then...

Re: 12-Mar-10 News-Mideast peace talks collapse in humiliation

Very good posting, esp the Warren part (Obama talking to Rev Guard is interesting and it does make sense). We definitely need to have more Warrens around! Paul Volcker said: "If a big non-bank institution gets in trouble and threatens the whole system, there ought to be some authority that can step...

Millennials will be end of the road for Progr

I thought this was interesting and timely.

Re: Climate Change

... Over millions of years worth of Antarctic ice core data there is a strong correlation between CO2 levels and Antarctic temperature. In statistics correlation is a requirement for causation, but does not prove causation. The ice core data shows a correlation alright.... that Air Temp Changes are...

Re: Acute vs chronic crises

I believe what we're going to see is a world controlled by the Islamic world. They control the majority of the energy resource (oil) in the world. The Western World has established an economy which will totally decimate their (the West's) ability to sustain themselves (the West) for more than a mont...

Re: Welcome to the Generational Dynamics Forum!

I however, being born in ’66 and have never felt a connection to ANY generation am confused as to where I fit in best. I can’t relate to the boomers and feel that they are to blame for many of the problems we have today I think I mentioned this elsewhere... I was born in 74. My memories go back to ...

Re: Climate Change

When you are trying to make up your mind about something, you have to go to the basics and work up from that, and by basics, I meant original data that's public and known to be good as you can get. Absolutely. This Global Warming thing is so God-damned stupid that if anyone spent just a few minutes...
