I realize this thread probably won’t fly with people who don’t care to share their age, but I was inspired by [this thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=458400) on knowing people very close to you in age, so I figured I’d give it a shot. Just post your year of birth and find out who else shares it with you! I’m vintage '75, baby. ---

1959 – Alaska and Hawaii are admitted to the union, the Lincoln Memorial replaces sheaves of wheat on the back of the penny, and I make my entrance on the world stage. ---

[QUOTE=Flander] 1980. To those who posted above: What was it like back when the world was in black and white? 😉 [/QUOTE] Simpler. Muuuuuuuuuch simpler. Here’s some mundane pointless trivia: My dad was born in 1930. I was born in 1960. My daughter was born in 1990. SO … When my daughter is 30 … I’ll be 60 and my dad will be 90. 🆒 ---
