  1. It wierds me out a little to think a little that, like Lynn, we will be among the last remnants of our times some day. The turn of the millennium, 9/11, the rise of the internet, meme culture, all of that will be just a memory of a few old men and women. As much as a memory as the black days of the Second World War, and Lynn’s small part in that grand drama. I guess that’s the true key to eternal youth - become a part of history, and everyone will remember you as you were.

  2. Eddie Sims you’re missing the point. The Greatest Generation is now a shadow of its former self - largely passed into history and fading by the day. What’s “loads of people” to you is a small portion of what once was.

  3.  @simsy1997  I'll clarify myself then - among the last remnants. I didn't mean to imply that she was the last living witness to the WW2 era.
