I was born in 80 and have always considered myself GenX

Yeah I think 80 is usually considered the final year for GenX.  I guess I thought you were a few years younger than that.  Hell, you're old, dude.

Is GopherRock young? He has youthful energy. Sam feels like young Gen-X. 

I think I’m younger than ELA, so I might be the youngest here? Which would honestly track.

ELA and GR are of similar age, I think. I want to say @ELA  started college (at IU) in 2003, as AAA, and that @GopherRock  graduated from Mini in 2006 and went to work out in Seattle.

Hmm. That sounds right for ELA. Which also makes sense why I remember him as AAA, despite I don’t think getting to the board until a little after that.

He stayed AAA until about half-way through MSU, I think. Then he became a Spartan fan and changed to ELA. 2005/6 maybe? 

Memory fades.

I honestly never would have guessed that. Not a knock at all. Hell when we get older we want to be mistaken for energetic youth. Also would never have guessed BAB is that young. 

And to me, ELA is always AAA in my mind. For both his rooting interests, but also his early days of AAA i was also blown away by how smart this young kid was. Pretty sure we are around the 25 year mark of that.

ELA and I are indeed of similar vintage. It took me 5 years to get through the civil engineering curriculum, so it was 2007 when I graduated. Coincidentally, I first met all of you in 2007n down in Austin.

Born 1984, I am firmly in the Oregon Trail generation.
