There must be one in there for the babyboomers. If not, I nominate hedonist/consumer. Before anyone beats me upside the head for attacking babyboomers, I are one!

I would fit into the "Nomads" from the book, "The Fourth Turning," since I was born in 1966. Still, you have other criteria and terms for Generations, I see myself as a part of "Generation Jones, sort of a nitche between boomers and X'ers. It's like where the Boomers partied on, the Joneser's say, "we've been screwed," and the X'er's say, "so have we, get used to it." Basically if you remember watching the Moon Landings, when TV's had knobs, 8-Tracks and when "live by satellite" was special, you're a Joneser.
I think overall, the free ride of prosperity we got from being the only major nation not touched by the ravishes of World War II is over and we must go on from there.
