That would be "beatniks" for some of us. No age insinuation expressed
or
implied.
Theya re still freakin' hippies. :)

And all just as fun to beat up Anyway, if you want to hear what's
new in underground radio, check out this link:

Each week has a theme, some better than others.

I'll check out that link Tim, thanks. Oh, and if your name is Short
Wave, or similar, you probably should lay off the Little Steven. Even
a small dose of the Dollyrots, or the Charms might just make your head
blow up;!

You guys cannot differentiate between beatniks and hippies? For shame! :|

There is no differance...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maynard_G._Krebs

"The Krebs character, portrayed by actor Bob Denver, began as a
stereotypical beatnik, with a goatee, "hip" slang usage, and a
generally unkempt, bohemian appearance, studiously avoiding anything
resembling work, which he seemed to regard as the ultimate four-letter
word. Whenever the word was mentioned, even in a line like "That would
work," he would jump with fear, exclaiming, "Work!" He was a stark
contrast to the well-groomed, well-dressed, straitlaced Dobie, and the
contrast between the two friends provided much of the series' humor.

Gradually, he became less of a stereotyped beatnik and more a free
soul who did his own thing - including collecting tinfoil or petrified
frogs, seeing the old Endicott Building get torn down and seeing the
movie The Monster Who Devoured Cleveland (IN FACT, MAYNARD MIGHT BE
DESCRIBED AS THE PROTOTYPE OF THE LATE-60'S HIPPIE).

Game. Set. Match.

There is no difference.

The Rockers had blue collar jobs and worked like hell, as long as the
proper fuel was available. We also dressed a little nicer and were not
so afraid of soap! More toward the end of the decade...
