83. I was taking some classes at a community college....
and the kids were griping because marijuana wasn't legal. I asked them what they had tried to do about that and they looked at me like I was nuts. I explained to them that the old hippies had tried and done everything we could and that we were damn tired of fighting the same battles like the drug laws, abortion rights, women's rights, etc. and that it's time they got off their lazy asses and did some of the fighting. The same goes for most that came after us boomers.

People do truly forget just what the boomers have contributed.
