now I know why I am silent

Hmm, I've always wondered this myself... now I know.

- People born before 1946 were called The Silent generation..

- The Baby Boomers, are people born between 1946 and 1959.

- Generation X, people have been born between 1960 and 1979.

- Generation Y, are the people born between 1980 and 2009  

Why do we call the last group Generation Y?
 
I never did know, but recently a cartoonist explained it very eloquently below...
Learned something new today!

I always thought the Y generation meant something like, Y should I work or Y should I clean up after myself etc. Seems to fit pretty good!!!!
