The Why of Y ...

8 Jul 2010, 09:51 AM

Just got this in an e-mail and had to share. So funny...

Hmm, I've always wondered this myself.... Now I know.

-People born before 1946 were called The Silent generation.
-The Baby Boomers, are people born between 1946 and 1959.
-Generation X, people have been born between 1960 and 1979.
-Generation Y, are the people born between 1980 and 2009

Why do we call the last group Generation Y?

I never did know, but recently a cartoonist explained it very eloquently below...

Learned something new today!
