[BITList] "Y" Generation

[John Feltham]

-  People born before 1946 were called The Silent generation.. 

- People born between 1946 and 1959 are called The Baby Boomers. 

- People born between 1960 and 1979 are called Generation X, . 

- And people born between 1980 and 2010 are called Generation Y , 

Why do we call the last group Generation Y?
 
Y should I get a job? 
Y should I leave home and find my own place? 
Y should I get a car when I can borrow yours? 
Y should I clean my room? 
Y should I wash and iron my own clothes? 
Y should I buy any food?
 
But a cartoonist explained it very eloquently below...
