Kids born in years between large bumps end up caught on the edge - perpetually too old for the ones behind, too young to ever be accepted in the society born before them.
That more or less happens these days - there is a sort of lost generation born between the late 1950s & about 1970 who managed to be the first age cohort in 200 years who were poorer than their parents, at least in Britain (where else did punk rock come from?)
Actually punk rock came from Germany, look up Klaus Nomi and Nina Hagen, and Canada, P. Orridge and Throbbing Gristle. Klaus is also the first 'famous' person to die from AIDS. Then it moved to NY & Cali. (The Germs fuckin' rule!). It didn't get to Britian until it had already been established a couple of years. ____________________________________________________________________ Before a larger group can see the virtue of an idea, a smaller group must first understand it.
