“The Fifties offered a culture that worked - but it was a very stifling, limiting culture,”

Funny, but growing up in this time, I did not find it stifling, or limiting. Quite the contrary, we found we had unlimited opportunities for play and work, and a bright future. Quite a contrast to the attitudes prevalent in today’s culture.

With parents/grandparents who "got off the boat" at Ellis Island, I agree with ALL you said in that remark.

Thank you for answering for me. It truly is impossible for anyone today that did not experience that age to understand it. Care to venture a guess at the age of Mr. Jeeves? I’m willing to bet a years salary he’s under 50.
