I was born in the 80s, and I feel like a freaking time traveler. But then, I grew up in an extremely rural part of colonial New England, and it was quite behind the times, even for the 1980s....most locals were part of a handful of families that pre-dated the revolutionary war and had never moved out of town. Now I'm in urban Southern California as a software engineer. I've been here over a decade, but upon reflecting on my growing-up, it feels like I've been flung at least half a century forward in time, if not more.
