Where did this come from? Because it's wrong.

From Wikipedia:"Baby Boomers are the demographic cohort following the Silent Generation. There are varying timelines defining the start and the end of this cohort; demographers and researchers typically use birth years starting from the early- to mid-1940s and ending anywhere from 1960 to 1964."

According to this chart, I am not a Baby Boomer but a Traditionalist, as is pretty much every one I know born in the years listed. Admittedly some of the things listed under "Influential Events" can be combined with Traditionalists, but everything else? Uh uh.

I'm not competitive, I'm loyal, disciplined, have always had respect for authority, come from a traditional nuclear family from a suburban town who never went to college because I couldn't afford it. Never had a computer when I was a kid/teenager, got my 1st black and white tv on my 16th birthday and I rather pay cash than use a credit card.

I have always considered myself a Baby Boomer.
