but has anyone ever read the books by Strauss and Howe? I think its interesting about defining generations and knowing where each one starts and the other one ends. One of the generations listed in there is the Silent Generation. I've always been interested by that. It defines that generation as anyone born from 1925-1942. Who are these people? No one in my family is of this generation. My parents were too young to be in this generation (both being born in 1950) and my grandparents were too old as they were born in 1918, 1920, 1921, and 1924.
I also noted that some of the boomer icons were born at the tail end of the silent generation such as John Lennon (1940) and Jimi Hendrix (1942).
