Choosing your generation?

I admittedly wasn't specifically looking for the first or last borns in every case, but a universal year in which someone born in that year would have experienced those events at a certain stage of life, after which the cusps began. As an example, a person that was born in 1953 could also vote at 18 but would still have been in college when Saigon fell and the Vietnam War was lost. For that matter, a 1976 born was technically the last to start elementary school before MTV launched but would not have spent most of high school before the World Wide Web was public.

Noted on the Challenger and O.J. trial though, the months of those events didn't match.
