Ummmm...
2012 - 30 = 1982
2012 - 30 = September, October, November, December 1981 && 1982
Dates are weird.
Having a birthday at the end of Dec., 1981, I am close to being the last Gen.-Xer.
I'm more inclined to note the difference as those that were in school when they banned teachers from using red pens because it hurt the students feelings.
