This might be a better place to put this.
Oh, and BTW, if anyone happens to have the link to the actual survey this article is referring to, don't hesitate to share it here if I don't get around to it first:

Study: Generation gap in U.S. largest since ’60s;
Social values and morality are areas were older, younger people differ mostupdated 1:12 a.m. ET, Mon., June 29, 2009WASHINGTON - American adults from young to old disagree increasingly today on social values ranging from religion to relationships, creating the largest generation gap since divisions 40 years ago over Vietnam, civil rights and women's liberation.
A survey being released Monday by the Pew Research Center highlights a widening age divide after last November's election, when 18- to 29-year-olds voted for Democrat Barack Obama by a 2-to-1 ratio.
Almost eight in 10 people believe there is a major difference in the point of view of younger people and older people today, according to the independent public opinion research group. That is the highest spread since 1969, when about 74 percent reported major differences in an era of generational conflicts over the Vietnam War and civil and women's rights. In contrast, just 60 percent in 1979 saw a generation gap.
