Also anyone who doesn't remember the 70s has nothing to compare it with as a reference: for those of us who go that far back, PO "resonnates" with stories from our most impressionable years (power cuts, water rationing, fighting for fish, etc).
Surely the reason the under-20s aren't talking about it is the same reason that no one else is talking about it - namely, that the media aren't talking about it.

As several people here have observed, ignorance of PO isn't confined to the under-20s.

The fact that there are no under-20s on PS doesn't mean much - there won't be many under-20s on any serious forum.
