They Had DSL at Woodstock

"...those Necco wafer colored conversation hearts...Those classic messages we wanted to believe used to read 'True Love', 'Be Mine', 'My Gal', 'Sweet Heart' and 'Kiss Me', but now in the vernacular of the times they read 'E Mail'...'Write Me', 'So Fine' and 'Wise Up'. Happily, there are still a few romantic notions...scattered in among the more hippie sayings..."

Hippie sayings? I've long noticed a tendency among certain older people to conflate all "youngsters" in their minds, but this is just ridiculous.
