'You have it so good, but all you do is com plain, complain, complain." He then embarks on a 10-minute com plaint about how young adults complain too much. I suppose there is some truth to his grumbling. Grossly character ized, we have a hyper-aware, hyper-critical, hyper-sensitive cynicism. This may be seen as an outward symptom of our inward disease - the discon tent of living in a post-modern, post-JFK/ MLK, post-hip, post-fun era. American society went through a two-decade party with free love and reckless living on tap, and now we young adults get to live through the hangover. One gets the sense that times are not as innocent as they once were, andit seems thatwe cannot count on much any more. Ourfaithisnot in the integrity of our leaders or the loyalty of our peers but in the reliability with which numerous franchises around the world can pro duce identical Big Macs. The fact is that we live in an era with few heroes. Our parents had the physics and philosophy of Einstein; we have the anti-humanism of Feynman and the wife-swapping antics of Hawking. Our grandparents had Andrew Carnegie; we get Bill Gates. "NOW HONEY, BEFORE WU SAY ANYTHING, I'D LIKE TO POINT OUT THAT HAVE Granted, not everything is worse than it used to be. If all goes well, NEVER COMMITTED PERJURY!" our generation may never have to see an infantry war again; air raids and smart bombs have replaced the trench warfare of yore. But then again, the nation never partied as hard as it did when it was recuperat ing from a war. World War I gave us the Roaring '20s. World War II brought on rock 'n' roll and leather jackets. The Vietnam War gave way to disco and bell bottoms, but we lost that war, so what do you LETTERS expect? Dear Editor: First, Clinton resigns.
