	Latest baby boom promises business opportunities - 1998-09-07
		Gallup polls report that echo boomers appear to be less idealistic than the original baby boomers, but to have more faith in the world than their older Generation X siblings.
		This echo boom, often called Generation Y, is nearly as big, including some 72 million Americans, or 28 percent of the population.
		Call it the "echo boom," or as some demographers refer to its members, the "millenials." Whatever you call it, call it big.

	Professor David K. Foot
		David K. Foot, Professor of Economics at the University of Toronto, is co-author of the bestselling books Boom Bust & Echo 2000: Profiting from the Demographic Shift in the New Millennium and Boom Bust & Echo: How to Profit from the Coming Demographic Shift (with Daniel Stoffman, Stoddart 2000; Macfarlane, Walter & Ross, 1998, 1996).
		(French language version Entre le Boom et l'Écho: Comment mettre à profit la réalité démographique, Les Éditions du Boréal, 1996.) These books reflect his current research interests which lie in the numerous relationships between economics and demographics and in the resulting implications for both private and public policies, especially in the Canadian context.
		He is a two-time recipient (in 1983 and 1992) of the University of Toronto undergraduate teaching award, and in 1992 received one of the Society for Teaching and Learning in Higher Education's 3M Awards for Teaching Excellence, which recognizes outstanding Canadian university educators.

	The 2000 Census: Looking for kids? Baby boom's in the suburbs and towns
		Demographers blame the echo boom, a 25 percent increase in the nation's birth rate that began in the mid-1970s and peaked in 1990 as the result of the post-WWII baby-boomers having children.
		Now that the echo boom has subsided, all but four school districts in King County have seen their kindergarten enrollments drop significantly since 1995 and most are projecting further declines.
		The 2000 baby boom is not concentrated around the highest-performing school districts in the county.

	Baby boom - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Echo baby boom (Generation Y) (1978–1992), the children of the post-WWII baby boomers.
		Some contest the general conventional wisdom that baby booms signify good times and periods of general economic growth and stability, but this is a controversial position that ignores much of the well-documented historical record from the 1500s to present.
		The term Baby Boom most often refers to the dramatic post-World War II baby boom (notice the rate of change on the chart below), with the term Baby Boomer referring to the persons born during that iconic era.

		Reflecting in large part the baby boom population dynamics, the number of children 5-to-17 years of age will be flat nationwide, having little or no growth, or diminish in size for the remainder of the decade.

		I call what's coming the "millenni-boom." We estimate that by the year 2100, 94 million young people will be going to school, an increase of 42 million over the current school-age population.
		We made a good choice in the last eight years to end deficit spending and to invest in education, and it is starting to pay off.
		Our nation's schools and colleges are bursting at their seams, and they will continue that way for many years to come.

		They are the leading edge of what population specialists call the "echo baby boom,’’ the children of the post-World War II baby boom.
		Crater High School grad Joey Berdanier strikes a similar contrast with her baby boom mother, who is a media assistant at the school’s library.

	Slowing population growth will have strong effect on economics
		The U.S. labor has not only absorbed all of the post World War II baby boom but is well on its way to absorbing the baby boom "echo." From here on out, natural population increase as a source of new labor will be a diminishing factor in furnishing new workers.
		But the baby boom also has acted as a proverbial pig in a python for the labor force.
		Now that the boom pig is getting closer to the exit end of the python, we can expect the opposite to happen.

	Word Spy - Generation Y
		Since Generation Y is composed mostly of the children of the Baby Boom Generation (1946 to 1964), a synonym for Generation Y is the Baby Boom Echo.
		My take on it is there is the Baby Boom (40-60), Generation X (20-40) and then Generation Y (1-20)and the others listed on WIKI are half-generations.
		Generation Y is not 1978 to XYZ because Generation X does not extend beyond 1974.

	AlterNet: WireTap: Generation Y's Silent Protest
		We've all heard sociologists say our so-called Generation Y or "echo boom" is the largest American generation since the baby boomers, boasting a projected population of about 62 million.
		So maybe even for the younger members of this '90s generation -- who were born to speak Chat, who grew up in the glory years of America's last big boom, when business moved fast and information faster -- there actually was something sacred after all.
		This is the first I've heard of the "Y generation", but I have been hearing a lot of stories about students chasing recruiters out of their schools, organizing, even taking it upon themselves to do independent investigations of recruiters.

	The Word Spy - Millennial Generation
		This is yet another term for what is more commonly known as Generation Y or the Baby Boom Echo — the children of the baby boomers.
		They will happily participate in a national service a Boom-run Congress is likely to establish for them.
		Network executives vying for youth-market ratings know that to portray the millennial generation as insulated or carefree would be absurd — as it is in the 1998 movie "Pleasantville," in which two teens get stuck inside a 1950s TV show.

	Lab #4: Total Fertility and Population Momentum
		We have talked about the long-term impacts of the Baby Boom – that even though baby boomers tend to have fewer babies than their parents did, there are more baby boomers having babies, resulting in the "Baby Boom Echo." Total fertility also varies by culture and economy as we talked about in class.
		Immigrants from high fertility countries tend to have fewer babies than their fellow countrymen at home, but tend to have more babies than the average "old-stock" American (someone multiple generations removed from the immigrant experience).
		For the first exercise, you will be computing the 1988 total fertility rate and briefly discussing in a paragraph how it compares to the current TFR of approximately 2.1.

		At the time, Belfast was truly the boom town of the British empire and Harland and Wolff was at the epicenter of that boom.
		Harland and Wolff provided the backdrop for one of the most powerful plays ever to have been written about Belfast-- Sam Thompson's "Over the Bridge," which exposed the cynical exploitation of sectarianism and its use in keeping workers divided during a labor dispute.
		The truth is that Harland and Wolff had changed long ago from what it had been in earlier years.
