Kerouac aside, wasn't it the yippies (not yuppies) that were doing the Pentagon performance?
ISTR yuppies were years after the Youth International Party (and quite different).
Anyone?

Meant to say Kerouac was a beatnik, Abbie was a yippie who inspired a generation of dirty hippies.
And we've sunk further still but I don't know that there is a lasting term yet. Maybe it will be NPC? I favor Quaranteenie (which makes less sense but sounds more fun, I mean by it a teenager who was locked up during their formative years and ended up a politically active mentally ill ignoramus)?
