A lot has changed in the last 20 years
Beloit College puts out a "mindset" list each year of things that are true for the current freshman class that haven't been for their predecessors. Some examples from my class, the class of 2007:
1. Ricky Nelson, Richard Burton, Samantha Smith, Laura Ashley, Orson Welles, Karen Ann Quinlan, Benigno Aquino, and the U.S. Football League have always been dead.
3. Iraq has always been a problem.
22. They have never gotten excited over a telegram, a long distance call, or a fax.
23. The Osmonds are just talk show hosts.
24. Undergraduate college athletes have always been a part of the NBA and NFL draft.
33. Banana Republic has always been a store, not a puppet government in Latin America.
42. Michael Eisner has always been in charge of Disney.
