Don't worry--we make fun of the Jane Fonda type of boomer and praise these types:

I'm not anti-boomer as much as I am anti-hippie. It just so happens that the bulk of hippiedom was established by the boomer generation :(
Sometimes I fail to make the distinction clear, and for that I apologize, however I do wish that there were more, louder voices to counteract the "popular" voices of the generation who seem to think they speak for all of it.
Nonetheless, I am still sick of hearing about the Sixties ;) but that's probably the Gen-X slacker r in me
