It's 'Official'

I always knew that my generation was a lucky one. And now, Elwood Carlson, a professor at Florida State, has documented the fact. Carlson writes of the 'Lucky Few', those born between 1929 and 1945. We missed the depression and WWII, but have been able to learn from them. We've lived easier and longer lives than our parents. A changing world has been a constant for us - technology, the role of the sexes, what we eat, how we entertain ourselves, where we live, how we spend our money, the role of government, etc., etc., etc. We lived during America's heyday and are seeing our role in the world change.
