The average Boomer was born in about 1952, so the average Boomer was 12 years old shifting from childhood into youth.
The average Silent was born in about 1933, so the average age was 31 years old shifting from youth into middle age.
The average GI was born in about 1912, so the average age was 53 years old shifting from middle age to elder.
The average Lost was born in about 1892, so the average age was 72 years old shifting from elder to old age.
-- you don't think the 2T started in 1967 with the Summer of Love? why 1964?
I've never met a Boomer who cared about the JFK assassination. It was the Silents who venerated him. As a GI, Kennedy would have been seen as an oppressor by the Boomers if he had lasted long enough.
