Surviving the Critical Mass
Sucking on a cigar and casting his fishing line into the pond, my New Age cousin informed me that Critical Mass was going to happen in the year 2000. When I asked what he meant, he explained that the forces of good (as he defined them) were finally going to outnumber and overcome the forces of evil.
The Critical Mass that he predicted did occur … only 20 years later. While law-abiding citizens remained quarantined in their houses, chaos erupted on the streets of America. As monuments and morality fell, the influence and philosophies of the Greatest Generation and their Boomer kids were finally outnumbered and overwhelmed by the X, Y, and Z Generations.
