Nope, and something tells me there’s a crap load of us. From other threads I seem to remember a ton of Dopers my age.

Three (I didn’t finish reading the thread). Nice to see others from 1962 feel “lost between the cracks”. Born too late for Boomers, but not a Gen X. Forgotten and overlooked, story of my life…  
We must unite and make ourselves known.

Back when I was a child, you had to build your own damn zombies. Also, we haqd to walk 5 miles through the snow to get to a mainframe.

Oh, me! When people want to know what I was doing when Elivis died, I stare at them blankly before saying, “I don’t know, maybe trying to find my toes?” 4-month-olds aren’t doing much. My parents learned the hard way that newborns and loud movies don’t mix, but they did get to see Star Wars in the theater 🙂

1. Dec 31st.

Although I’m certain we weren’t born in the same year, I think me, **Twicks** and her “twin” share that day of birth, right?🙂
