      Yes it’s totally defeatist to talk about things in the past that happened and acknowledge things that are presently happening. I didn’t say no one would beat them, I said that they will never relinquish power. Two very different concepts.

        I was sold on your initial post (boomers won’t get out of the way), but chose to reply here to show support for your retort.

        I read some hilarious article a few days before the pan went full-tilt that talked about how our gen was the best at not caring. I can’t seem to find it again. It’s not the one that came up when I just searched and someone talked about distancing and such because the pan wasn’t a part of the one I remember. Too bad. It had me LOLing a lot when I read it. Thought it was at McSweeny’s, but that seems to be a phantom memory.
