That's interesting. I was born in '74 and think of myself as being just past the "core" of Gen X (I voted for "Smells Like Teen Spirit" as my prom theme!); my older step-siblings all were in their early to mid '20s in the early '90s recession. How much do people now in their late 40s (or just starting to turn 50, I guess) really identify w/Gen X? I know it's just a dumb construct, I've always associated it with people a bit closer in age to myself (no doubt because of my own biases).
