I identify with this group, but I am told that Dec.,'44 makes me too old. Any thoughts on the subject, you Boomers out there?

Every 7.5 seconds, a Boomer turns 50!
The average household headed by boomers age 35 to 54 spends $12,000 annually for housing.
- In the US, between the end of World War II and 1964, 78 million baby boomers were born and now are part of the "Boomers" generation.
- Boomers are now entering middle age and changing the demographic of the total population. 4 out of 10 households are between ages 35 to 54 and the numbers of householders ages 45 to 54 will increase 20 percent from 1995 to year 2000
- The number of couples without children between the age of 45 and 60 will increase from 8 million in 1980 to 16 million in the year 2010.
You'll know that you qualify as a true Baby Boomer if you remember...
Cruising" on a Friday night, listening to the Top 40 on your AM radio.
When there were only 3 TV channels -- and it was so hard to choose what to watch!
Where you were when JFK was shot...(or RFK)...(or MLK, Jr.)...
how scary it was to open that first Apple II...(or Tandy)...(or Commodore)...to add a card to increase the RAM from 16K all the way up to 64K.
. What a TV test pattern looked like, when the channel went off the air at midnight
When the price of gas jumped up to 50 cents per gallon.
Watching the first man walk on the moon with "one small step..."
baby boomer myself proud of it 50 years old

Baby boomers are that group were born after the soldiers got bak fromWW2 and the next 10 years. So maybe 44 would be early but what's a coupla months. If you went through the 60's as a teen then you are one of us and we love you baby. Doesn't this new viet nam make you wonder if we have the capacity to learn.

Baby boomers were born starting in 1947 and ending in 1959. I think.
