I turned my pitot anti-icing switch on

The article makes some very interesting points, one of which I think will prove unnerving to many:

Baby Boomers will continue to be respected for their cultural achievements (it's not a fluke of history that Boomer music and other entertainments are still wildly popular among the young), but will be increasingly ignored in the political debate. The term "senior citizen," already in decline, will disappear entirely. And if push comes to shove, Boomer's financial interests -; including Social Security -; will be subjugated "for the greater good."

One glaring omission in my mind when he wrote about "the Millennials, individuals born between 1982 and 2004" is the contribution that will be made by those who have served in our nations military since 2002.

The steady, often unrecognized sacrifice and valor of our young soldiers, sailors airmen and Marines in the past seven years is remarkable in scope.
