Todays Generation vs. Hippy Generation

I don't think today's generation is that far different then the Hippy generation. Today, I witness a lot of political and social movements in my town, London, ON. I witness people using pot and playing lots of different kinds of music. A lot of people I know are involved in environmental and against war, pro peace groups. In fact, there is a rally coming up in a few weeks. I think today's generation is very similar to the Hippy generation. Today people are experimenting with all sorts of things, such as music, drugs and politics. I do see a similarity.
