Pumps' Perplexities

If you were born around the early 1950's, you were the
proper age to buy a copy of the Mother Earth News
which started publication in 1970........

Here "you" were back then, in your "idealistic youth",
being made aware of how to save energy, recycle and
save "things" of the earth......

The periodical is still in print but it seems the
"idealistic youth", of the time, decided to buy big
houses, cars, air conditioners, TVs, sound systems and
other materialistic things........

The 1990 group of newborns, now the "idealistic
youth" of 2007, are trying to convince the older "boomers"
to try to "Go Green"......If the "boomers" did not do it
with the Mother Earth News I doubt they will do it
the "Inconvenient Truth" movie.........

Or, better yet, is this attempt by the "failed boomers"
to have the "Y" Generation do what they chose not to do......
