I know this is a bit late. But this my last desperate attempt to get more of a variety of ppl completing these for me. If you could fill out the thing below. And post it back to this thread. Or email it to wilted.sour@gmail.com I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you!

My PIP surrounds the notion of generations (the term itself and generation labels like Baby boombers, Generation X and generation Y) and what it means to Australian society (how it does/doesnt impact/affect etc). If you have the time to fill out the thing below reading the instructions above on how to go about it. Like I said before it would be MUCHLY appreciated. :p All of us here know how the PIP can get the best of us sometimes. But some are lucky and tame the beast I however am not as successful. I'm just trying to appease mine.
