Two things about the age comment


1. My intent when writing it was to cover the ages of 40+ (and I am part of that broad age group). But I realize that it was written very general and is open to be read differently.

2. It was also meant to highlight my limits in being able to influence opinions with a single message board post. For those who grew up in the 40s, 50s, 60s, or 70s, they had a very different life experience than I did. Sure I have learned about it in books, music, movies and tv shows, but that is not the same as living in those times. So I’m limited in my ability to relate. It’s just like the farm posts yesterday. I found them fascinating but I can’t relate at all. And because I’m limited, I doubt my ability to connect in a way that might change any opinions.

I’m sorry to hear that it was interpreted differently and appreciate the feedback on how it came across.
