Current anomaly: Five generations alive!
#43
(08-12-2019, 10:24 AM)Anthony Wrote: And going back to the OP: There are actually six generations still alive: See Henry Kissinger, Hugh Downs (who hosted the TV game show Concentration, which inspired the Gen-X classic board game Husker Du?), Betty White, Jimmy Carter, Russell Nelson (President of the LDS/Mormon Church), etc.

What are your thoughts on the 18-year theory/Michael Alexander theory when it comes to generations? In my opinion, it seems to be the least controversial:

Civil War Saeculum
1802-1819: Transcendental Generation
1820-1837: Gilded Generation
1838-1855: Bleeding Generation
1856-1873: Progressive Generation

Great Power Saeculum
1874-1891: Idealists
1892-1909: Automobile Generation
1910-1927: GI Generaiton
1928-1945: Silent Generation

Millennial Saeculum
1946-1963: Baby Boomers
1964-1981: Generation X
1982-1999: Millennials
2000-2017: Homelanders

Post-Millennial Saeculum
2018-2035: Neo-Prophets
2036-2053: Unnamed nomad generation
2054-2071: Unnamed hero generation
2072-2089: Unnamed artist generation
