Age is on my mind. (hexbear.net)

From 0-45 years of age, I consider anything that qualifies in that, young...

Further from that, and you're very old...

Other than that, it's funny to think that:

one, the leading figures of the counterculture were born from the Silent Generation (1928-1944), rather than the Baby Boomers (1945-1965).

i.e. Abbie Hoffman and Bobby Seale, born in 1936

Jerry Rubin, born in 1938

lastly, it's 2024, more than 20 years after the 2000s...
