Boomers vs Seniors

I thought I was subscribed to a discussion board about about a generation -- now it seems to be about the aches and pains of aging that happen to ANY 'generation' once they become "Seniors."

Is there a discussion board about THE post-WWII generation, please?

and you’ll see a list of the many forums on this site. I don’t see one marked “boomers”. Maybe you can request one from the
“community help” forum.

still occasionally receiving new posts, had no host to advocate for it. But, I totally agree that replacing it with a "Senior" forum tends to direct conversations to the health issues with aging and is not what a generational forum would be expected to focus on.

If you contact EarlG and express interest in renewing it--especially if you would agree to "host" it, I'd bet he'd give it some consideration.
