The youth don't know anything...
...except that Johnny Unitas played for the Colts (not Unitis page 92) and Oliver North Whitehead commented on the friendliness of dogs and cats, not Alred Noth Whitehead (page 102)
OK Boomer!
NB: I don't usually post comments but this book's condescending attitude towards anyone born after 1950 really irked me whereas most of the time elderly folks' nostalgia does not. I felt the need to defend Boomers, Gen X-ers, Millenials, and even Gen-Z from this spiraling echo chamber of a non-existent, fantastical period of U.S. history.
