Being a Gen Xer myself, I'm extremely disappointed and saddened by the results of this study. I had hoped that much of my generation would herald in a new way of thinking, despite how we were judged and ridiculed by other generations. I had hoped we would really surprise everyone with our eventual rejection of the world we had been handed. I know many of my generation who did. Apparently, not nearly enough of us escaped the trappings of the world around us. I guess every generation thinks better things of itself. I guess I'll just have to leave them behind. More challenges for my remaining forty or fifty years. Looking ever forward toward compassion, equality, and progress. Kyle
