What's A Baby Boomer - A Description
The Baby Boomer Generation is generally thought to include those born after World War II from 1946-1964 inclusive.
While there is some debate about the exact years, statisticians generally accept the definition as being valid.
Others have attempted to define the generation along experiential lines, breaking the years into broad common ground. For instance, those born in 1964 probably share very little experience with those born in 1946.
Birth rates soared in the post war years as the US experienced a period of rapid economic growth. 1955 marked top of the birth rate bubble known as the Baby Boom.
There are approximately 76 million Baby Boomers and they represent the single largest demographic group in existence today.

I think is very interesting to know
how the about 76 Million of Baby Boomer are distributed as...metabolic rate.I,m a biochemist specialized in Nutrition, and this will be my small gift for all BB colleagues.Well:
1. 60 % slow oxidizers
2. 30 % normal/slow-oxidizers
3. 5 % fast-oxidizers
4. 5 % normal.
Beyond pure statistics:for groups 1 & 2
Atkins diet is absolutely counterproductive ( try Ornish! );for
Group 3,Atkins is a God sent diet(avoid Ornish! ).For "4" - Congratulations and
continue around... Sears ( The Zone ).Florjan

Let's talk about dependent Adult children with kids and degrees, that are stressed out from working just a few years and are falling apart, losing jobs and in debt. I have had it! I have bailed my daughter out of debt for the last time and now she will either sink or swim. Anyone feeling me? And the latest is, she isn't talking to me, and I haven't seen my Grandkids!
