| | |  Baby Boomers: Encyclopedia II - History of California 20th century - Baby boomers and free spiritsImage:Surf Rainbow.png
After the war, hundreds of land developers bought land cheap, subdivided it, built on it, and got rich. Real-estate development replaced oil and agriculture as Southern California's principal industry. In 1955, Disneyland opened in Anaheim. The population of California expanded dramatically, to nearly 20 million by 1970. This was the coming-of-age of the baby boom.
In the late 1960s the baby-boom generation reached draft age, and many risked arrest to oppose the war in Vietnam. There were numerous demonst ...

| | | | Baby Boomers: Encyclopedia II - The Boomer Bible - Structure The core of the Boomer Bible consists of The Past Testament and The Present Testament, which correspond roughly to the Old and New Testaments.
The Past Testament contains a comprehensive view of science, history, philosophy, morality, and literature as understood by the Baby Boomers from pop culture and an ineffective educational system:
The Books of Apes (Kinesis, Apes, Names, Gods, and Lies) which describe prehistory.
The Books of peoples (Gypsies, Mesopotamians, Greeks, Romans, Barbarians, Christians, B ...

| | | | Baby Boomers: Encyclopedia II - History of California 20th century - Oil movies and the military In the 1920s, oil was discovered, first near Newhall, in northern Los Angeles County. Soon, more oil was found all over the L.A. Basin and other parts of California. It soon became the most profitable industry in the southern part of the state.
The first decades of the twentieth century saw the rise of the studio system founded by industrious Jews seeking a life in the land of opportunity. MGM, Universal and Warner Brothers all acquired land in Hollywood, which was ...

| | | | Baby Boomers: Encyclopedia II - History of California 20th century - Economic power house Conversely, during the same period, the Golden State also attracted commercial and industrial expansion of astronomical rates. The adoption of a Master Plan for Higher Education in 1960 allowed the development of a highly efficient system of public education in the Community Colleges and the University of California and California State University systems; by creating an educated workforce, it attracted investment, particularly in areas related to high technology. By 1980, California became recognized as the world's eighth-largest economy. M ...

| | | | Baby Boomers: Encyclopedia II - History of California 20th century - The California legal revolution Prior to the 1960s, California's legal system was notorious for the backward, incoherent and repressive nature of its laws, and its chaotic and disorganized courts. During the 1960s, under the aegis of Chief Justice Roger J. Traynor, California became liberal and progressive, and the California Supreme Court became the most prestigious state supreme court in the United States.
Traynor's term as Chief Justice (from 1964 to 1970) was marked by a number of brilliant firsts: California was the first state to create true strict liability i ...

| | | | Baby Boomers: Encyclopedia II - History of California 20th century - A victim of its own success? Although the air and pollution problems have become less visible because of new laws, health problems associated with pollution have continued to rise. The brown haze associated with nitrogen oxide from automobiles may have abated somewhat, but amounts of deadly ozone have grown. Respiratory allergies are near universal, and asthma is widespread. The crystal clear blue skies — trademarks of California 100 years ago — are long gone. Pollution from storm water drains began to kill organisms near the inhabited seacoast, inspiring numerous conservation organizations. The former paradisiacal lago ...

| | | | Baby Boomers: Encyclopedia II - History of California 20th century - High-tech expansion Starting in the 1950s, high technology companies in Northern California began a spectacular growth that continued through the end of the century. The major products included personal computers, video games, and networking systems. The majority of these companies settled along a highway stretching from Palo Alto to San Jose, notably including Santa Clara and Sunnyvale, California, all in the Santa Clara Valley, the so-called "Silicon Valley," named after the material used to produce the integrated circuits of the era. This era peaked in 2000, ...

| | | | Baby Boomers: Encyclopedia II - Generation Y - Generational demographics Many in Generation Y are the children of Baby Boomers, and the generation is also known as the "Echo (Boom) generation," because it is, in some areas, the largest demographic grouping since the baby boom that immediately followed World War II (the U.S. birth rate per 1,000 population, however, declined for seven consecutive years starting in 1991 — the second longest such streak on record, exceeded only by the eleven-year baby bust of 1958 through 1968). Most parents of the members of Generation Y are from the Baby Boomer or younger Silent ...
