If ever there was the perfect time & the perfect author to write a book entitled Every Generation Needs a New Revolution, How Six Generations Across Nine Decades can Find Harmony and Peaceful Coexistence, the time is now  and the perfect  author is our dear  Cafe friend, Linda Thompson.                                                                    

In spite of her breakneck schedule, Linda managed to drop by the Café for five minutes last night to give Jeff, Natalie, Sharon, & I a few morsels from the intergenerational food for thought that we will all find in her latest book:

“While researching mounds of material, I read page after page about the corporate brain drain (Boomers who are choosing to retire), and the lack of competent young people to replace them.   We are being bombarded with news about the Boomers and retirement.

On the other hand we’re also hearing all about Generation Y (those ‘kids’) who have no sense of work ethic, no respect for their elders, no sense of appropriate dress, and certainly no loyalty to their employers.    

Perhaps it’s because I’m a Boomer who never really grew up, but I understand both sides of this picture....

Our dear friend and colleague Dorothy Northrop from the National Multiple Sclerosis Society dropped by the Café early this morning to wish all of us a magnificent March.

Her sunny smile and exuberant spirit epitomize the caring, optimistic attitude that Dorothy brings to her leadership role within the Research & Clinical Programs Department of the Society.  

And she came bearing  news for all who have MS, or are caring for a loved one with MS, or have a dear friend dealing with it:

NMSS is moving forward with incredible momentum to help families connect and stay connected to our great big moving world; and

They’re looking for you to Join the Movement so you can move forward with momentum too….
