        Also, because of sample size concerns, Jews, Muslims, Buddhists and Hindus are all part of the same religion now (hope everyone gets along).

        Came here to rep the Oregon Trail Generation too, glad to see you already did. But I'd suggest a slightly more broad 1978-1982.

        So I'm a millennial and my friend is a millennial, I'm with you so far. But my friend's 9 month old baby is a millennial too?

        Someone uses STATA in 2018? Get R or Python like a real millennial. Or SAS like a Gen Xer.
