Hmmm… Gen Xers who were born in the early 70s/late60s weren’t so young when the wall came down. Gen X actually ends in the late 70s or so. More on that in the next post. It’s not about giving credit/blame at all though. These are just events within the memory of that generation. Like I say, it all depends on who and when you are.

i am not sure if i can credit gen x-ers with the downfall of the wall OR the 9/11 events. most genxers were youngsters when the wall came down and well into adulthood when the 9/11 attacks happened. they will be the generation that handles BOTH situations though, and i find that quite interesting. oj can suck it. bush 2000 can suck it, the electoral college is a joke to democracy. lockerbie, ehh…america always needs an “us vs them” mentality and why not have it be the “us vs. them dark skinned arab/muslim people with tons of oil under their lands”? BTW this area stretches from current southern lybia, sudan, algeria, chad, niger, and mali. all the way to and including saudi arabia, iraq, iran, kuwaitt, iran, UAE, etc…. maybe the most important thing that happened to the gen exers was the collapse of the financial markets???????????????????

good list. I love conspiracy theories and a few good ones are on the list of defining moments. wondering if death of michael jackson should make the list, without a doubt 1 of the biggest artists of all time. That pic of o.j. is great, i want it on a t-shirt, lol!
