Worse than that (could it be worse than not remembering Lennon?) is that they probably can't find Viet Nam on a map, identify the capital of half the U.S. states (or anyl the world's nations), recall who the second president os the U.S. was, who the prior U.S. president was, etc. etc. etc.

Is Dr. Dre their physician of choice? Is Eminem their favorite candy? Is Smashing Pumpkins their halloween activity of choice?

Sorry. Asides lead to other asides, and we are left wondering how we got here.
