A reader has asked for a link to a good starting point for
generational theory.
Here's a good place to start (PDF file):
** Generational Dynamics Forecasting Methodology (PDF)
**
http://GenerationalDynamics.com/gdgraph ... namics.pdf
Generational Dynamics is based on System Dynamics, developed by Jay
W. Forrester at MIT, as applied to population systems. It's also
based on Chaos Theory. The above paper was peer-reviewed by experts
at Computer Sciences Corp. (CSC), and won an award.

If you want to focus on the relationship between Gen-Xers and Boomers:
** For Boomers: How to Survive in a Generation-X World

There's also a thread in the Generational Dynamics forum where this
subject was heatedly debated:
** Generation-X culture vs Boomer culture

The articles on my web site, including "World View," are intended to
relate generational theory to day to day events. I've made thousands
of predictions over the years, and they're all available on my web
site to be checked. There is no analyst, journalist, politician or
web site in the world with anything close to the predictive success of
Generational Dynamics.
